Charging the Battery Pack
The camcorder can be powered with a battery pack or directly using the compact power adapter.
When you use the compact power adapter, the power of the battery pack will not be consumed.
Charge the battery pack before use.
1 Attach the ferrite core to the compact power adapter
cable.
1 Attach the ferrite core about 6 cm (2.4 in.) from the plug
end (the plug to be connected to the camcorder).
2 Pass the cable through the center of the core and wrap
it around the core, then close the unit until it clicks shut.
•Attaching the ferrite core to the compact power
adapter cable is necessary to suppress RF
interference.

2 Plug into a power outlet.
3 Connect the camcorder.
Plug into the DC IN terminal.
4 Insert the battery pack.
1 Press softly into the battery attachment unit.
2 Slide up until it clicks in place.
Charging will start when the camcorder is turned off.
Charging the supplied BP-820 Battery Pack will take approximately 4 hours 35 minutes. A fully
charged battery pack will allow for 1 hour 40 minutes of recording under typical conditions or
4 hours 35 minutes of playback.*
