Before detaching the power source, make sure that the camcorder’s power is turned off. Failure to do so can result in a camcorder malfunction.

Using AC Power

Connect the AC Adapter to the camcorder as shown in the illustration on page 6.

NOTES:

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

Do not allow the DC terminals of the AC Adapter to come in contact with metals, as this can result in a short circuit and cause malfunction.

For other notes,  pg. 38.
