Power Supply
ª Using the AC Adaptor
1
Connect the DC Cable to the Palmcorder.
2
Connect the DC Cable to the AC Adaptor.
3
Connect the AC Cable to the AC Adaptor 
and the AC Jack.
≥The AC Cable’s outlet plug does not fit 
entirely into the AC Adaptor jack. A gap will 
remain as shown 
1.
≥Before connecting or disconnecting the
power supply, set the [OFF/ON] Switch on 
the Palmcorder to [OFF] and make sure that 
[POWER] Lamp is not lit.
ª Using the Battery
Before use, fully charge the Battery.
≥We recommend using a Panasonic Battery.
≥We cannot guarantee the quality of this 
Palmcorder when batteries from other 
companies are used.
1
Attach the Battery to the AC Adaptor and 
charge it.
≥Since the Battery will not be charged when
the DC Cable is connected to the AC 
Adaptor, disconnect it from the AC Adaptor.
≥The [CHARGE] Lamp lights up, and charging
starts.
≥When the [CHARGE] Lamp goes off,
charging is completed.
≥When the battery is completely discharged,
the [CHARGE] lamp blinks at first, but the 
battery is charged normally. When the 
temperature of the battery is too high or low, 
the [CHARGE] lamp blinks and the charging 
time becomes longer than usual.
