Cautions for Using Battery Packs
Be sure to charge the Battery Packs before using them.
»Pay attention to the following points to avoid danger.
1.Do not throw the Battery Pack into fire.
2.Do not short-circuit the poles of the connector.
3.Do not disassemble or reconstruct the Battery Pack.
4.Use only the supplied AC Adaptor to charge Battery Packs. »Follow the instructions below to avoid damage to the Battery Packs or reduction of their service life.
1.Never subject the Battery Packs to strong shocks or drop them.
2.Do not recharge a Battery Pack that is already fully charged. »During operation of the VHS-C Movie or during recharging, the Battery Pack may become warm however this does not pose any problem.
►The service life of a Battery Pack has its limits. If the operation time of a Battery Pack in spite of normal recharging becomes so short that its normal use for shooting is no longer possible, it should be replaced with a new one.
»The function of the Battery Pack is based on a chemical reaction. Use it according to its characteristics.
1. Charge the Battery Pack within a temperature range of 10°C~35‘’C. If charged at lower temperatures, the chemical reaction cannot take place optimally, causing the performance of the Battery Pack to deteriorate. At higher temperatures, the Battery Pack cannot be charged completely.
2.Store the Battery Pack in cool and dry place. If exposed to high temperatures for a long time, the battery life will be shortened and the self*dtscharging process will be increased.
3.Charge the Battery Pack before using it because selfdischarging may occur if it has not been used for a tong period of time.
4.When not using the Battery Pack, remove it from the VHS-C Movie or the AC Adaptor.
•When the VHS-C Movie is not actually being used, remove the Battery Pack to avoid reduction of its service life.
<11>
АС Adaptor (supplied)
•When a Battery Pack is attached to the AC Adaptor, the VHS-C Movie cannot be supplied with power. Therefore, be sure to remove the Battery Pack.
•Never use any other AC Adaptor than the specified one.
Car Battery Cord (optional)

0 Start the engine and insert the car battery cord.
Car Battery Cord |
To Cigarette Lighter |
VW-ACC5 (optional) |
Socket |
•The car battery cord can only be used with 12 V DC negativegrounded vehicles. 24 V DC or positive-grounded vehicles can not be used.
•If the supplied voltage from the vehicle drops too low, the VHS-C Movie will turn off automatically to prevent any malfunctioning. When this happens, wait about 10 seconds before switching the VHS-C Movie on again.
•It is not possible to recharge the Battery Pack by using the vehicle's battery and/or the car battery cord.
