Before You Begin

If you want to shoot as soon as possible, read the chapters "Getting Started" and "Basic Operations" first. As

you read through this manual, buttons and settings on the camcorder are shown in capital letters.

e.g. Set the POWER switch to CAMERA.

TV color systems differ from country to country.

To view your recordings on a TV, you need an NTSC system based TV. When you want to use a PAL-M

system based TV, you will need an NTSC/PAL-M transcoder (as this is an NTSC based camcorder). Please

check the list on page 44 to see the TV color system of your country.

Note on the Supplied RFU Adaptor

Since each country has its own electricity and TV color system, you may not be able to use the RFU adaptor

when you use the camcorder abroad.

Important!

Use the battery completely before charging!

Before you charge the battery, make sure it has been used (discharged) completely to avoid capacity

down of the battery caused by excessive charging.

To use up the battery, remove the video cassette and simply slide the POWER switch on the camcorder to

CAMERA with the battery attached, and leave the camcorder until the ¢__\_indicator appears flashing and

a red lamp flashes in the viewfinder. The _ indicator also flashes in the display window.

Notes on the AC power adaptor

•The camcorder cannot be operated while charging the battery pack.

• The POWER lamp will remain lit for a while even if the battery pack is detached and the power cord is

disconnected after charging the battery pack. This is normal.

• If the POWER lamp does not light, set the VTR(DC OUT)/CHARGE selector to OFF and disconnect the

power cord. After about one minute, reconnect the power cord and set the VTR(DC OUT)/CHARGE selector

to CHARGE again.

Q..

Tips for Using the Battery Pack

Preparing the Rechargeable Battery Pack

Have sufficient battery pack power to do 2 or 3 times as much recording than you have planned [a]

"Battery life" indicated in this manual is measured by the continuous recording time of the camcorder, at room

temperature using a fully charged battery.

Battery life is shorter in cold climates [b]

Battery efficiency is decreased and the battery will be used up more quickly.

Turn STANDBY of the camcorder down when not recording to save battery power [c]

A smooth transition between scenes can be made even if recording is stopped and started again.

While positioning the subject or selecting an angle, or looking through the viewfinder lens, the lens moves

automatically inside the camcorder and the battery is used. The battery is also used when a tape is inserted or

ejected.

[a] [b] [c]

When the Rechargeable Battery Pack Should Be Replaced

When the ,F_\_ indicator and red lamp in the viewfinder, and the f_l indicator in the display window

change from slow blinking to rapid blinking while you are recording [d]

Turn off the power switch of the camcorder and replace the battery pack. Leave the tape in the camcorder to

obtain a smooth transition between scenes after the battery pack is replaced.

[d]

Notes on Charging

Before using the battery pack, charge It sufficiently

A brand-new battery pack is not charged.

Make sure you use up the battery before recharging

•if recording is completed before the #_\_ indicatorappears in the viewfinder, you should remove the tape, set

the POWER switch to CAMERA, turn STANDBY up before recharging. Leave the camcorder until the (__\_]

indicator blinks rapidly which means the battery is used up.

•When you use the AC-S10 AC Power Adaptor, the DC-S10 Car Battery Charger or BC-S10 Portable Battery

Charger, you can discharge the battery with their discharging function.

• Repeated charging without using up the battery may lower battery capacity. However, the original battery

capacity can be recovered if you fully discharge (use up) and then charge the battery again.

Recharge the battery pack after long storage

If the battery pack is charged fully but then not used for a long time (about 1 yeart, it becomes discharged.

Charge it again but in this case the battery life will be shorter than normal.

After several charging and discharging cycles, the battery life will recover its original capacity.

Keep the Terminals Clean [e]

If the terminals (metal parts on the back) are not clean, the battery duration will be shortened.

When the terminals are not clean or when the battery pack has not been used for a long time, install and

detach the battery pack from time to time. This will improve the contact condition. Also, wipe the + and -

terminals with a soft cloth or paper.

Notes on the Rechargeable Battery Pack

Why the battery pack heats up? [f]

During charging or recording, the battery pack heats up. This is caused by energy that has been generated

and chemical change has occurred inside the battery pack, and this is not cause for concern.

How to care for the battery pack

• Detach the battery pack from the camcorder after using it, and keep it in a cool place. When the battery pack

is on the camcorder, a small amount of current flows to the camcorder even if power is turned off. This

causes overdischarging and shortens battery life.

• A charged battery pack always discharges even when it is not in use after charging.

Thus, it is recommended that you charge the battery right before using.

How to use the switch on the battery pack [g]

This switch is provided so that you can remember the charging status. Set the switch to the "no mark" position

when charging is completed. Set the switch to the "red mark" position when the battery is used up.

[el [q :.:......

",.', *.;

[g]

How many times can the battery pack be recharged?

The battery pack can be fully charged and discharged about 500 times under normal temperatures. If the ¢_\-J

indicator flashes rapidly just after turning on the camcorder with a fully charged battery pack, the battery pack

should be replaced with a new fully charged one.

Recommended temperatures during charging

The temperature range of charging is 41°F to 95°F (5°C to 35°C). However, to provide maximum battery

efficiency, the recommended temperature range when charging is 50°F to 86°F (10°C to 30°C).

Be sure to observe the following:

• To prevent an accident caused by a short circuit, do not allow metal objects such as a necklace to

touch the battery terminals. Carry the battery pack attaching to the terminal cover,

• Keep the battery pack away from fire.

• Keep the battery pack dry.

•Do not open nor convert the battery pack.

• Do not expose the battery pack to any mechanical shock.

A lithium battery has positive and negative polarities.

Positive side of the battery is marked +. Negative side has no polarity sign.

To activate the clock and store birth dates in the camcorder's memory, you must first install a lithium battery.

(1) Remove the lithium battery holder located below the grip strap of the camcorder. (2) Install the supplied

CR2025 lithium battery with the + side facing down. (3)Put the lithium battery holder into the camcorder.

Lithium Battery Life

The battery will last for approximately 1 year under normal conditions. When the lithium battery becomes

weak, the ,_ indicator will flash in the viewfinder for about 5 seconds when you turn STANDBY up while the

POWER switch is set to CAMERA. In this case, replace the battery with a Sony CR2025 or Duracell

DL-2025. Use of any other battery may present arisk of fire or explosion.

When replacing the lithium battery, keep the battery pack or other power source attached. Otherwise, input

data will be cleared and you have to store the data again.

Warning

Batterymay explode if mistreated. Do not recharge, disassemble ordispose of infire.
