NOTES:

This product includes patented and other

proprietary technology and will operate only
with JVC Data Battery. Use the JVC BN-
VF707U/VF714U/VF733U battery packs. Using
generic non-JVC batteries can cause damage
to the internal charging circuitry.

● If the protective cap is attached to the battery

pack, remove it first.

● During charging, the camcorder cannot be

operated.

● Charging is not possible if the wrong type of

battery is used.

● When charging the battery pack for the first time

or after a long storage period, the POWER/
CHARGE lamp may not light. In this case, remove
the battery pack from the camcorder, then try
charging again.

● If the battery operation time remains extremely

short even after having been fully charged, the
battery is worn out and needs to be replaced.
Please purchase a new one.

● Since the AC Adapter processes electricity

internally, it becomes warm during use. Be sure to
use it only in well-ventilated areas.

● Using the optional AA-VF7 Battery Charger, you

can charge the BN-VF707U/VF714U/VF733U
battery pack without the camcorder.

● After 5 minutes has elapsed in Record-Standby

mode with the cassette inserted, and no operation
is performed, ("PAUSE" indicator may not appear),
the camcorder will automatically turn off its power
supplied from the AC Adapter. In this case, the
battery charge starts if the battery is attached to
the camcorder.
