NOTES:

●Charging times are for a fully discharged battery pack.

●When the battery/CF card cover is opened or the SD card is removed while the power is on, the power is automatically turned off to protect the data in the recording medium. To turn on the power again after opening the battery/CF card cover, close the cover. To turn on the power again after removing the SD card, close the cover and set the power switch to OFF, then to or .

●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.

●Using the optional AA-V200 battery charger, you can charge the BN-VM200U battery pack without the camera.

●Since the AC adapter processes electricity internally, it becomes warm during use. Be sure to use it only in well-ventilated areas.

Using the Battery Pack

Perform steps 2 – 4 in “Charging the Battery Pack”.

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), 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.
