Power

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

( pg. 8)

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”,

” or

”.

Disconnect the AC adapter from the camcorder.

Unplug the AC adapter from the AC outlet.

Detach the battery from the camcorder.

There may be a delay after you open the cassette holder cover until the

 

cassette holder opens. Do not use force.

 

Once the cassette holder is closed, it recedes automatically. Wait until it

 

recedes completely before closing the cassette holder cover.

 

When the Recording Start/Stop button is pressed, it may take a few seconds

The time required to calculate and display the remaining tape length, and the

 

accuracy of the calculation, may vary according to the type of tape used.

 

“TAPE END” appears when the tape reaches its end, and the power goes off

 

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

 

when a cassette at its end is loaded.
