How To Power Your Camcorder

You can power your camcorder three different ways:

A. C.

AC Adapter/Charger

• The adapter/charger connects to

the camcorder and plugs into a

wall outlet. It lets you power the

camcorder off normal household

power (120 volts AC, 50/60 Hz).

CAUTION: If you wish to operate the

AC adapter/charger on a power source other than 120 volts, 50/60 Hz, use only a transformer-typepower converter. Do not use "solid-state" or "switching-

type" power converters. They will

damage your AC adapter/charger. An

optional CPS08 adapter/charger may be purchased from your RCA dealer. The CPS08 is designed for use on 100- 240 volts, 50/60 Hz. See pages 44-45for optional accessories.

Rechargeable Battery

The rechargeable 9.6-volt battery lets you record outdoors or

anytime you're away from electrical outlets.

The supplied battery can be charged and then connected to the camcorder for portable use indoors or outdoors.

Optional DC Car Cord

The optional DC car cord lets you power the camcorder from the cigarette fighter socket of a car, truck, or RV.

You can also use the DC car cord to connect your camcorder to a long-play battery.

The DCC096 is specially designed to convert 12-volts to 9.6-volts.
