Getting started
CHARGING THE BATTERY
You can charge the battery with the USB cable and power adaptor.
Make sure that you use the supplied USB cable or power adapter
to charge the battery. If you use any other power adapter for the
camcorder, it will not work properly or the battery may not be
charged. It may also cause an electric shock or result in a fire.
1 Insert the battery into the camcorder. page 19
2 Open the jack cover of the camcorder.
3 Charge the battery using the USB cable and power adaptor.
• The CHG (charge) indicator lights up and charging starts.
When the battery is fully charged, the charging (CHG)
indicator turns green. page 21
• Charging the battery at low temperature may take longer or the
battery may not charge fully (The green indicator will not turn on).
• Make sure that there are no foreign substances on the plug or in the
socket when you connect the power adaptor to the camcorder.
• When using the power adaptor, place it close to the wall outlet. If
you experience a malfunction while using the camcorder, separate
the power adaptor immediately from the wall outlet.
• Do not use the power adaptor in a tight space, such as between
furnishings.
• Make sure to turn off the camcorder before disconnecting the power
adaptor. Otherwise, you can damage the storage media or data.
• When recording indoors with a wall outlet available, it is convenient to use
the power adaptor instead of the battery.
• We recommend you charge the battery in a place with an ambient
temperature between 50˚F and 86˚F (10°C~30°C).
• If the camcorder is turned on, the battery will still charge, but more
charging time will be needed. We recommend you keep the camcorder
turned off while it charges.
• You cannot operate the camcorder using USB power only. Use the
power adaptor or battery to power the camcorder.
• If you use the camcorder while you are charging the battery, charging
may take longer.
• An AC plug adaptor is required in some foreign countries. If you need
one, purchase it from your distributor.
