Battery Packs

The battery packs are nickel-cadmium
or nickel metal-hydride batteries. Before
using the supplied battery pack or an
optional battery pack, be sure to read
the following cautions:

1.To avoid hazard . . .

....do not burn.
....do not short-circuit the terminals.
....do not modify or disassemble.
....use only specified chargers.

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

....do not subject to unnecessary shock.
....avoid repeated charging without fully discharging.
....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.
NOTES:
It is normal for the battery pack to be warm after charging,
or after use.
Temperature Range Specifications
Charging ................. 10°C to 35°C (50°F to 95°F)
Operation................ 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F)
Storage.................... –10°C to 30°C (14°F to 86°F)
Recharging time is based on room temperature of 20°C
(68°F).
The lower the temperature, the longer recharging takes.

Cassettes

To properly use and store your cassettes, be sure to read
the following cautions:

1.During use . . .

....make sure the cassette bears the Mini DV mark.
....be aware that recording onto prerecorded tapes
automatically erases the previously recorded
video and audio signals.
....make sure the cassette is positioned properly when
inserting.
....do not load and unload the cassette repeatedly
without allowing the tape to run at all. This
slackens the tape and can result in damage.
....do not open the front tape cover. This exposes the
tape to fingerprints and dust.

2.Store cassettes . . .

....away from heaters or other heat sources.
....out of direct sunlight.
....where they won’t be subject to unnecessary shock
or vibration.
....where they won’t be exposed to strong magnetic
fields (such as those generated by motors,
transformers or magnets).
....vertically, in their original cases.
CAUTIONS

DANGER:

Video Light

•The video light becomes extremely hot. Do not touch
it either while in operation or soon after turning it off,
otherwise serious injury may result.
•Do not place the camcorder into the carrying case
immediately after using the video light, since it
remains extremely hot for some time.
•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.
•It is recommended that you consult your nearest JVC
dealer for replacing the video light.

When using the AC Power Adapter/Charger in areas

other than the USA

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

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.
