NOTES:
This product includes patented and other
proprietary technology and will operate only
with JVC Data Battery. Use the JVC BN-
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.
During charging, the camera cannot be operated.
Charging is not possible if the wrong type of
battery is used.
Make sure to use the battery pack with the arrow
( ) mark. The camera does not turn on with the
battery mount cover without the arrow ( ) mark.
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.
Using the optional AA-VF7 battery charger, you
can charge the BN-VF707U/VF714U/VF733U
battery pack without the camera.
After 5 minutes has elapsed in record-standby
mode, the camera 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 camera.
Using the Battery Pack
