Step 1 Preparing the power source

Notes

•The BATTERY INFO indicator may not be displayed in the following cases:

The battery pack is not installed.

Something is wrong with the battery pack.

The battery is exhausted.

•The BATTERY INFO indicator will not appear when you press DISPLAY on the Remote Commander when the POWER switch is set to OFF (CHG).

Battery Info

The number displayed as Battery Info is the approximate recording time.

While the remaining battery time is being calculated

“CALCULATING BATTERY INFO ...” is displayed.

If you press DSPL/BATT INFO with the LCD panel closed

The battery information appears on the viewfinder for about 7 seconds.

Connecting to a wall outlet

You can use your camcorder without worrying about the power shortage. Connect the AC Adaptor in the same way as you would when charging the battery pack.

PRECAUTION

The set is not disconnected from the AC power source (house current) as long as it is connected to the wall outlet, even if the set itself has been turned off.

Notes

•The AC Adaptor can supply power from a wall outlet even if the battery pack is attached to your camcorder.

•The DC IN jack has “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.
