Make sure that the battery pack is installed on the camcorder.

Open the DC IN jack cover, then connect the AC adaptor supplied with your camcorder to the DC IN jack on your camcorder with the plug’s vmark facing up.

Connect the mains lead to the AC adaptor.

Connect the mains lead to the wall socket.

Charging begins. The POWER/CHG lamp lights in orange during the charge, then turns off when the charge is completed (full charge).

After charging the battery pack

Disconnect the AC adaptor from the DC IN jack on your camcorder.

Notes

•Prevent metallic objects from coming into contact with the metal parts of the DC plug of the AC adaptor. This may cause a short-circuit, damaging the AC adaptor.

•Place the AC adaptor near a wall socket. If any trouble occurs with this unit while using the AC adaptor, disconnect the plug from the wall socket as soon as possible to cut off the power.

•The POWER/CHG lamp may flash if the battery pack is not installed correctly or the battery pack is damaged.
