INFORMATION:

The High Capacity battery pack BN-V856U (optional)

provides approx. 7 hours of recording time when the

viewfinder is on and the LCD monitor and the video light

are off.

It is impossible to charge the BN-V856U battery pack

using the provided AC Power Adapter/Charger. Use the

optional AA-V80EG AC Power Adapter/Charger.

EN7

Charge Marker

A charge marker is provided on the battery pack to

help you remember whether it has been charged or

not. Two colours are provided (red and black)—you

choose which one means charged and which means

discharged.

NOTES:

●

The recording time per charge is affected by such factors as the time spent in Record-Standby mode and the

frequency of zooming. It is safer to have spare battery packs to cover 3 times the planned shooting time.

●

Charging times noted on page 6 are for a fully discharged battery pack, and discharging times are for a fully

charged battery pack.

●

Charging and discharging times vary according to the ambient temperature and the status of the battery pack.

●

Remember to set the charge marker after charging a battery pack or after detaching a discharged one from

your camcorder.

●

Perform the REFRESH function after no less than 5 chargings.

●

While the AC Power Adapter/Charger’s power cord is disconnected from the AC outlet, it is possible to

discharge the battery by pressing the REFRESH switch. During that time, the AC Power Adapter/Charger does

not charge the battery. When discharging is complete, detach the battery from the AC Power Adapter/

Charger to store it.

●

High temperatures can damage the battery pack, so use only where good ventilation is available. Do not

allow it to discharge in a container, such as a bag.

●

If you stop recharging or discharging part way through, make sure to remove the battery pack before

unplugging the adapter’s AC cord.

●

Remove the battery pack from the adapter immediately after discharging.

●

To avoid interference with reception, do not use the AC Power Adapter/Charger near a radio.

●

Make sure you unplug the DC cord before charging or discharging the battery pack.

●

The CHARGE indicator may not light properly with a brand new battery pack, or with one that has been

stored for an extended period. In this case, remove and reattach the battery pack and recharge it. The

CHARGE indicator should blink during recharging. If not, contact your nearest JVC dealer.

USING AC POWER

Use the AC Power Adapter/Charger (connect as

shown in the illustration).

NOTES:

●

The provided AC Power Adapter/Charger features

automatic voltage selection in the AC range from

110 V to 240 V.

●

When using the DC cord, make sure you connect

the end of the cord with the core filter to the

camcorder. The core filter reduces interference.

USING A CAR BATTERY

Use the optional Car Battery Charger/Adapter

(connect as shown in the illustration).

NOTES:

●

When using the car battery, leave the engine

idling.

●

The optional Car Battery Charger/Adapter (BH-V3E)

can also be used to charge the battery pack (except

BN-V20U/V856U).

●

When using the optional Car Battery Charger/

Adapter, refer to the respective instruction booklet.
