NOTES:

●It is recommended to use the AC Power Adapter/

Charger as the power supply instead of the battery pack ( pg. 9).

●The S-Video cable and Audio/Video cable (RCA plug to RCA plug) are optional. Be sure to use the following:

•S-Video cable: YTU94146A

•Audio/Video cable (RCA plug to RCA plug): YTU94147A

Consult the JVC Service Center described on the sheet included in the package for details on their availability. Make sure to connect the ends with a core filter to the camcorder. The core filter reduces interference.

●To monitor the picture and sound from the camcorder without inserting a tape or MultiMediaCard, set the camcorder’s POWER

Switch to “ ”, then set your TV to the appropriate input mode.

●Make sure you adjust the TV sound volume to its minimum level to avoid a sudden burst of sound when the camcorder is turned on.

●If you have a TV or speakers that are not specially shielded, do not place the speakers adjacent to the TV as interference will occur in the camcorder playback picture.

●When a cable is connected to the AV OUT connector, the sound is not heard from the speaker.
