NOTES:

This product includes patented and other

proprietary technology and will operate only

VF707U/VF714U/VF733U battery packs. Using

generic non-JVC batteries can cause damage

to the internal charging circuitry.

If the protective cap is attached to the battery

pack, remove it first.

5 Plug the AC adapter into an AC outlet. The POWER/CHARGE lamp on the camcorder blinks to indicate charging has started.

6 When the POWER/CHARGE lamp goes out, charging is finished. Unplug the AC adapter from the AC outlet. Disconnect the AC adapter from the camcorder.

If the battery operation time remains extremely

short even after having been fully charged, the

battery is worn out and needs to be replaced.

Please purchase a new one.

Since the AC adapter processes electricity

internally, it becomes warm during use. Be sure to

use it only in well-ventilated areas.

Using the optional AA-VF7 battery charger, you

can charge the BN-VF707U/VF714U/VF733U

battery pack without the camcorder.

After 5 minutes has elapsed in record-standby

mode with the cassette inserted, the camcorder

will automatically turn off its power supplied from

the AC adapter. In this case, the battery charge

starts if the battery is attached to the camcorder.
