Notes on power sources
•Disconnecting the power source or removing the battery pack during recording or playback may damage the inserted tape.
•The DC IN jack has power source priority. This means that the battery pack cannot supply any power if the power cord is connected to the DC IN jack, even when the power cord is not plugged into a wall outlet.
