Powering Your Camcorder (continued)

Using the Optional Thomson Car Cord Adapter/Charger

The optional 1CVA356 car cord adapter/charger allows you to power your camcorder from the cigarette lighter socket of a car, truck, or RV. It converts 24- and 12-volts to a 6-volt output. The 1CVA356 can also charge the battery that came with your camcorder and the (long play) batteries.

Notes: Consult instructions enclosed with the 1CVA356 for details.

The vehicle’s engine does not have to be running when using the car cord.

Optional accessories are shown on pages 2-4.

Cautions: The 1CVA356 is designed to be used only with vehicles having negative ground electrical systems.

Do not use any other car cord. It may damage your camcorder.
