V Power ( pg. 10) ● Perform charging where the temperature is between 10°C and 35°C (50°F and 95°F). 20°C to 25°C (68°F to 77°F) is the ideal temperature range for charging. If the environment is too cold, charging may be incomplete.

●Charging times are for a fully discharged battery pack.

●Charging time varies according to the ambient temperature and the status of the battery pack.

●To avoid interference with reception, do not use the AC Adapter near a radio.

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

●The following operation stops charging:

•Set the Power Switch to “PLAY”, “A” or “M”. •Disconnect the AC Adapter from the camcorder. •Unplug the AC Adapter from the AC outlet. •Detach the battery from the camcorder.

automatically if left in this condition for 5 minutes. “TAPE END” also appears

 

when a cassette at its end is loaded.
