ATTENTION

Before detaching the power source, make sure that
the camcorder’s power is turned off. Failure to do
so can result in a camcorder malfunction.

REFRESH:

STORE B ATTERY:

Be sure to fully discharge a battery pack by
performing the following steps before storing it for
a long period of time, otherwise the battery
performance will be reduced.

1) Attach the battery to the camcorder with no
cassette inserted.

2) Set the Power Switch @ to “ ” or “ ” while
pressing down the Lock Button ! located on the
switch.

•During charging or discharging, the camcorder

cannot be operated.

•Charging and discharging is not possible if the

wrong type of battery is used.

•When charging the battery pack for the first time

or after a long storage period, the CHARGE lamp

) may not light. Remove the battery pack from

the camcorder, then try charging again.

•If a fully-charged battery’s operation time remains

extremely short, the battery is worn out. Please
purchase a new one.

•Perform charging where the temperature is

between 10°C and 35°C (50°F and 95°F). 20°C to
25°C (68°F to 77°F) is the ideal temperature range
for charging. If the environment is too cold,
charging may be incomplete.

•Charging time varies according to the ambient

temperature and the status of the battery pack.

•Since the AC Adapter processes electricity

internally, it becomes warm during use. Be sure to
use it only in well-ventilated areas.

•The following operation stops charging or

discharging:

•Set the Power Switch

•Disconnect the AC Adapter from the camcorder.

•Unplug the AC Adapter’s power cord from the

AC outlet.

•Detach the battery from the camcorder.

•Using the optional AA-V15 AC Power Adapter/

Charger, you can charge the BN-V11U/V12U/
V20U/V400U battery pack without the camcorder.
However, it cannot be used as an AC adapter.

•To avoid interference with reception, do not use

the AC Adapter near a radio.

•Recording time is reduced significantly when

Zoom or Record-Standby mode is engaged
repeatedly or the LCD monitor* is used repeat­edly.

•Before extended use, it is recommended that you

prepare enough battery packs to cover 3 times the
planned shooting time.
