AC adapters
• Do not connect and use an AC adapter in a
confined space, such as between a wall and
furniture.
• If a problem occurs during operation,
immediately disconnect the power cord from
the outlet.
• Do not short-circuit the plug of the AC adapter
with any metallic objects. Doing so will cause a
malfunction.

connecting it to the AC Adapter.
To turn the camcorder on, set the ON/STANDBY

supply after the power lamp is extinguished when the
power switch is set to the STANDBY position. If
