Description
Using a household power source to power the camcorder ZR200, ZR300, ZR400, ZR500 and ZR600/700
Solution
Using a Household Power Source
Connect to a household power source to use the camcorder without worrying about the battery power. You can keep the battery pack attached; the battery power will not be consumed.
- Turn the POWER switch to OFF.
- Connect the power cord to the power adapter.
- Plug the power cord into a power outlet.
- Connect the power adapter to the camcorder' s DC IN terminal.
- Turn off the camcorder before connecting or disconnecting the power adapter.
- If the adapter is used close to a TV, it may cause picture interference. Move the adapter away from the TV or the antenna cable.
- Do not connect any products that are not expressly recommended to the camcorder' s DC IN terminal or to the power adapter.
- You may hear some noise from the power adapter during use. This is not a malfunction.
- Do not disconnect and reconnect the power cord while charging a battery pack. The battery pack may not be charged correctly even if the CHARGE indicator glows steady. The battery pack may also not be charged correctly when a power outage occurs during charging. Remove the battery pack and attach it back to the camcorder.
|
- When the power adapter or battery pack is defective, the CHARGE indicator flashes rapidly (at about 2 flashes/second) and charging stops.
- The CHARGE indicator informs you about the charge status.
-
- 0-50%: Flashes once every second
- More than 50%: Flashes twice every second
- 100%: Glows steadily
