Note:

• See the SDC100 operation manual for details.

Cautions:

•Use only in DC 12 V or 24 V negative ground system cars. Positive-ground car batteries CANNOT BE USED. Check your car operation manual or consult a local car dealer.

•Use the car battery adapter only when the car is idling or being driven. Otherwise, the car’s battery will be drained.

•Before starting the car engine, the car battery adapter must be unplugged from the cigarette lighter socket.

•Before removing either the DC plug or the cigarette lighter plug, the camcorder’s Power switch should be set to OFF.

•Do not apply strong force to the DC cable connected to the camcorder as this will cause a malfunction.
