●
Use the JVC BN-VM200U battery pack and, to
recharge it or to supply power to the camera

voltage AC adapter. (An appropriate
conversion adapter may be necessary to
accommodate different designs of AC outlets in

The following notes concern possible physical
damage to the camera and to the user.
Do not use a tripod on unsteady or unlevel
surfaces. It could tip over, causing serious
damage to the camera.

Connecting cables (Audio/Video, S-Video, etc.) to
the camera and leaving it on top of the TV is not
recommended, as tripping on the cables will
cause the camera to fall, resulting in damage.
