When operating, keep a distance of about 30 cm (1 ft.) between the video light and people or object.

Do not use near flammable or explosive materials.

When using the AC Power Adapter/Charger in areas other than the USA

The provided AC Power Adapter/Charger features automatic voltage selection in the AC range from 110 V to 240 V.

General Battery Precautions

•Use only the following batteries:

C-P6U or C-P7U

AA (R6) size

Please make note of the following rules for battery use. When misused, battery can leak or explode.

1.Refer to the C-P6U/C-P7U instructions when replacing the battery.

2.Do not expose the battery to excessive heat as it can leak or explode.

3.Do not dispose of battery in a fire.

4.Remove battery from the unit if it is to be stored for an extended period to avoid battery leakage which can cause malfunctions.

USING HOUSEHOLD AC PLUG ADAPTER

In case of connecting the unit’s power cord to an AC wall outlet other than American National Standard C73 series type use an AC plug adapter, called a “Siemens Plug”, as shown.

For this AC plug adapter, consult your nearest JVC dealer.

INFORMATION

This device complies with Part 15 of FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:

(1)This device may not cause harmful interference, and

(2)this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. Change or modifications not approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment. This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encour- aged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.

Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

2.To prevent damage and prolong service life . . .

..... do not subject to unnecessary shock.

..... avoid repeated charging without fully discharg- ing.

..... charge in an environment where temperatures are within the tolerances shown in the chart below. This is a chemical reaction type battery—cooler temperatures impede chemical reaction, while warmer temperatures can prevent complete charging.

..... store in a cool, dry place. Extended exposure to high temperatures will increase natural discharge and shorten service life.

..... avoid prolonged uncharged storage.

..... remove from charger or powered unit when not in use, as some machines use current even when switched off.

3.To prevent damage to the camcorder . . .

..... replace the battery pack when it begins to

deliver less recording time per charge.

NOTE:

It is normal for the battery pack to be warm after charging, or after use.
