GETTING STARTED EN 15

NOTES:NOTES:

It is recommended that only genuine JVC batteries are used in this camera. 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.

When charging the battery pack for the first time or after a long storage period, the power/charge lamp may not light. In this case, remove the battery pack from the camera, then try charging again.

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.

Recording time is reduced significantly under the following conditions:

Zoom or record-standby mode is engaged repeatedly.

Playback mode is engaged repeatedly.

Before extended use, it is recommended that you prepare enough battery packs to cover 3 times the planned recording time.

Using AC Power

Connect the AC adapter to the camera as shown in the illustration. ( pg. 14)

NOTE:

The provided AC adapter features automatic voltage selection in the AC range from 110 V to 240 V.

About Batteries

DANGER! Do not attempt to take the batteries apart, or expose them to flame or excessive heat, as it may cause a fire or explosion.

WARNING! Do not allow the battery or its terminals to come in contact with metals, as this can result in a short circuit and possibly start a fire.

The Benefits Of Lithium-Ion Batteries Lithium-ion battery packs are small but have a large power capacity. However, when one is exposed to cold temperatures (below 10°C/50°F), its usage time becomes shorter and it may cease to function. If this happens, place the battery pack in your pocket or other warm, protected place for a short time, then re-attach it to the camera.
