Getting Started
Connecting Power
Connect the HDR-700 to an AC 100-240V wall outlet to
charge its internal battery or to operate the unit from AC
power.
Plug one end of the supplied power adapter to the DC
12V Power Input Jack located on the rear of the unit.
Plug the other end into an AC 100-240V wall outlet.
It will take approximately 8 hours to fully charge the
internal battery.
The battery use d in thi s devic e may pr esent a fire
or chemical burn if mistreated. Do not disassemble,
incinerate, or heat the batter y.
Do not c onnect this unit to a power source other than
that which is indicated here or on the label as this
may result in the risk of re or electric shock.
Use only the AC adapte r supplie d. Failure to do so
may cause a re or damage the unit.
Upon initial use, the batter y should be charged fully
(~8 hours) to ensure optimal per formance and battery life.
