via a DC power cord (not supplied) when
the mode select switch is set to DC OUT.
Pin 4 is the positive (+) polarity while pin 1
is the negative (–).
Notes
• Do not connect a device with power
requirements higher than the specified
values.
• Depending on the power consumed by
the connected device, the apparatus may
become warm. This is not a malfunction.
Avoid prolonged contact with the
apparatus if it should become warm.

Supplies power when the mode select
switch is set to CHARGE1.
The charging current is automatically
blocked when a battery pack other than a
lithium-ion battery pack has been
mistakenly attached.
c Channel 2 charge connectors
Supplies power regardless of the setting of
the mode select switch.
The charging current is automatically
blocked when a battery pack other than a
lithium-ion battery pack has been
mistakenly attached.

Charging Battery Packs
For safety, do not use batteries other than
genuine Sony batteries of the following
models.
• Lithium-ion battery packs:
BP-FL75
BP-L80S
Charging time
The time to charge a completely exhausted
battery pack to its full capacity is shown
below. (When the temperature is 25 °C
(77 °F). The charging time is not affected
by whether one or two battery packs are
being charged, or by combinations of
different battery models.)
When the mode select switch is set to DC
OUT, the charge time for the lithium-ion
battery pack attached to the channel 2
charge connector will be about twice as
long as the above times.
