The set is not disconnected from the AC power source (wall outlet) as long as it is
connected to the wall outlet, even if the set itself has been turned off.
Notes
• The AC power adaptor can supply power even if thebattery pack is attached to your
eamcorder.
• The DC IN jack has "source priority." This means that the battery pack cannot supply
any power if the AC power adaptor is connected to the DC IN jack, even when the
power cord is not plugged into a wall outlet.
