Preparing the Accessories

Fasten the grip belt. ONCE THE BATTERY PACK IS FULLY CHARGED

1Disconnect the compact power adapter from the camcorder.

2Unplug the power cord from the power outlet and the compact power adapter.

Manual background TO REMOVE THE BATTERY PACK

Press BATT. to release the battery pack. Slide the battery pack down and then pull it out.

Manual background IMPORTANT

Turn off the camcorder before connecting or disconnecting the compact power adapter. After you turn

the Manual background switch to Manual background , important file allocation data is updated on the disc. Be sure to wait until the PLAY and CAMERA mode indicators are completely off.

You may hear some noise from the compact power adapter during use. This is not a malfunction.

We recommend charging the battery pack in temperatures between 10 °C and 30 °C. Outside the temperature range of 0 °C to 40 °C, the charging will not start.

Do not connect to the camcorder’s DC IN terminal or to the compact power adapter any electrical equipment that is not expressly recommended for use with this camcorder.

To prevent equipment breakdowns and excessive heating, do not connect the supplied compact power adapter to voltage converters for overseas travels or special power sources such as those on aircraft and ships, DC-AC inverters, etc.

Manual background NOTES

The CHARGE indicator also serves as a rough estimate of the charge status. Continuously on: Battery pack fully charged.

Two quick flashes at 1-second intervals: Battery pack at least 50% charged. If the indicator flashes quickly but not exactly in this pattern, refer to

Troubleshooting (Manual background 67).

One flash at 1-second intervals: Battery pack less than 50% charged.

We recommend that you prepare battery packs to last 2 to 3 times longer than you think you might need.

Preparing the Accessories

Fasten the grip belt.

Adjust the grip belt so that you can reach the zoom lever with your index finger, and the Start/Stop button with your thumb.

WHEN YOU MOUNT THE CAMCORDER ON A TRIPOD

Do not leave the viewfinder exposed to direct sunlight as it may melt (due to concentration of the light by the lens). Do not use tripods with fastening screws longer than 5.5 mm. Doing

so may damage the camcorder.
