Preparations for Power Supply

USING DVD VIDEO CAMERA/RECORDER WITH AC ADAPTER/CHARGER

It is recommended that you use the AC adapter/charger to power the DVD video camera/recorder from household AC outlet when you perform settings on it, play back or edit images, or use it indoors.

Note:

Be sure to use the specified AC adapter/charger (DZ-ACS3) to power the DVD video camera/recorder. Using other AC adapter/chargers could cause electric shock or result in fire.
