On the charging/recording/playback time

Times measured with the camcorder at 25°C (77°F). (10-30°C (50-86°F) is recommended.)

Available recording and playback time will be shorter when you use your camcorder in low temperatures.

On the AC Adaptor

Connect the AC Adaptor to an easily accessible wall outlet close by. If any trouble occurs while using the adaptor, immediately shut off the power by removing the plug from the wall outlet.

Do not use the AC Adaptor placed in a narrow space, such as between a wall and furniture.

Do not short-circuit the DC plug of the AC Adaptor or battery terminal with any metallic objects. This may cause a malfunction.

PRECAUTION
