NOTES:

It is recommended that only genuine JVC batteries are used in this camcorder. Using generic non-JVC batteries can cause damage to the internal charging circuitry.

If the protective cap is attached to the battery pack, remove it first.

During charging, the camcorder cannot be operated.

Charging is not possible if the wrong type of battery is used.

When charging the battery pack for the first time or after a long storage period, the POWER/ CHARGE lamp may not light. In this case, remove the battery pack from the camcorder, then try charging again.

If the battery operation time remains extremely short even after having been fully charged, the battery is worn out and needs to be replaced.

Please purchase a new one.

Since the AC Adapter processes electricity internally, it becomes warm during use. Be sure to use it only in well-ventilated areas.

Using the optional AA-VF7 Battery Charger, you can charge the BN-VF707U/VF714U/VF733U battery pack without the camcorder.

After 5 minutes has elapsed in Record-Standby mode with the cassette inserted, the camcorder will automatically turn off its power supplied from the AC adapter. In this case, the battery charge starts if the battery is attached to the camcorder.
