Preparations
Step 1: Preparing the Power Supply
The camcorder can be powered by a battery pack or be connected to a household power
outlet. Charge the battery pack before use.
Attaching and Charging the Battery Pack
1. Turn off the camcorder.
2. Attach the battery pack to the
camcorder.
Slide in the connector end of the battery in
the direction of the arrow and press it
gently until it clicks.
3. Connect the power cord to the
adapter.
4. Plug the power cord into a power
outlet.
5. Connect the power adapter to the
camcorder’s DC IN terminal.
The CHARGE indicator starts flashing.
The indicator will stay on when the
charging is completed.
Once the battery is fully charged:
1. Disconnect the power adapter from the camcorder.
2. Unplug the power cord from the power outlet and the adapter.
To remove the battery pack:
Hold the BATT. button pressed down to release it, and pull out the battery
from the ridge on its bottom part.
Attaching the Ferrite Core (Asia only)
Attach the enclosed ferrite core before you connect the CA-570 Compact Power Adapter
to the camcorder.
Attach the ferrite core to the cable
about 7 cm from the plug end (the
plug to be connected to the
camcorder) of the CA-570 Compact
Power Adapter.
Pass the cable through the centre of the core
and wrap it around the core twice, then close the unit until it clicks shut.
