Lithium-fon battery packs
are small but have a large
power capacity. However,
when one is exposed to

• Perform charging where the temperature is between 1O°C
and 35°C (5O°F and 95°F). 2O°C to 25°C (68°F to 77°F) is
the ideal temperature range for charging, if the environment
is too cold, charging may be incomplete.
• Charging time is based on room temperature of 2O°C
(68°F).
• Charging times are for a fully discharged battery pack.
• Charging time varies according to the ambient temperature
and the status of the battery pack.
• To avoid interference with reception, do not use the AC
Adapter near a radio.
• Since the AC Adapter processes electricity internally, it
becomes warm during use. Be sure to use it only in wellventilated areas.
• The following operation stops charging:
• Set the Power Switch to "PLAY", '1_" or '_".
• Disconnect the AC Adapter from the camcorder.
• Unplug the AC Adapter froln the AC outlet.
• Detach the battery frown the camcorder.
• Using the optional AA-V40U AC Power Adapter/Charger,
you can charge the BN-V408U/V416U/V428U
battery pack
without the camcorder. However, it cannot be used as an
AC Adapter.

• When you use the LCD monitor outdoors in direct sunlight,
the LCD tnonitor may be difficult to see. If this happens, use
the viewfinder instead.
• The cassette holder cannot be opened unless a power

closing the cassette holder cover.
• When the Recording Start/Stop button is pressed, it may
take a few seconds before actual recording starts. The "_._"

40 ENTROUBLESHOOTING
If the probtem stilt exists after following the steps below,
_leaseconsult your nearest JVC dealer.
The camcorder is a microcomputer-controlled device.
External noise and interference (from a TV, a radio, etc.
might prevent it from functioning properly. In such
cases, first disconnect its power supply unit (battery
pack, AC Adapter, etc.) and wait a few minutes; and
then re-connect it and proceed as usual from the
beginning.
Power

• The power is not connected property.
-)Connect the AC Adapter securely. (_°_'pg. 7)
• The battery is dead.
-) Replace the dead battery with a fully charged one.
(_z pg. 6, 7)
• The LCD monitor is not open fully or the viewfinder is not
pulled out when recording.
-)Open the LCD monitor fully or pull out the viewfinder.

• If the Record-Standby mode continues for 5 minutes, the
camcorder's power shuts off automatically.
Then, the POWER/CNARGn
lamp will blink to indicate for
charging if the battery pack is attached to the camcorder
and its power is supplied from the AC Adapter.
-) Push back and pull out the viewfinder again or close and
re-open the LCD monitor to return to the Record-Standby
mode.

BatteryPacks
The supplied battery pack is
a lithium-ion bakery. Before
using the supplied battery
pack or an optional battery
pack, be sure to read the
following cautions:
• TO avoid hazards...
Terminals
...do not burn.
...do not short*cbuuit the
terminals. When transporting, make sure the provided
battery cap is attached to the battery. If the battery cap is
misplaced, carry the battery in a plastic bag.
...do not modify or disassemble.
...do not expose the battery to temperatures exceeding
60°C (140°F), as this may cause the battery to overheat,
explode or catch fire.
...use only specified chargers.
• TO prevent damage and prolong service life...
...do not subject to unnecessary shock.
...charge in an environment where temperatures are within
the tolerances shown in the chart below. This is a chemical
reaction type battery -- cooler temperatures impede
chemical reaction, while warmer temperatures can prevent
complete charging.
...store in a cool, dry place. Extended exposure to high
temperatures will increase natural discharge and shorten
service life.
...fully charge and then fully discharge the battery every 6
months when storing the battery pack over a long period
time.
... remove from charger or powered unit when not in use, as
some machines use current even when switched off.
NOTES:
• It is normal for rhe battery pack to be warm after charging,
or after use.
Temperature Range Specifications
Charging: t0°C to 35°C (50°F to 95°F)
Operation: O°C to 4O°C (32°F to tO4°F)
Storage: -2O°C to 5O°C (-4°F to 122°F)
• The lower the te_qperature, the longer recharging takes.

Cassettes
To properly use and store your cassettes, be sure to read
the following cautions:
• During use...
... make sure the cassette bears the Mini DV mark.
...be aware that recording onto prerecorded tapes
automatically erases the previously recorded video and
audio signals.
... make sure the cassette is positioned properly when
inserting.
...do not load and unload the cassette repeatedly without
allowing the tape to run at all. This slackens the tape and
can result in da_qage.
...do not open the front tape cover. This exposes rhe tape to
fingerpdnts and dust.
• Store cassettes...
...away from heaters or other heat sources.
... out of direct sunlight.
...where they won't be subject to unnecessary shock or
vibration.
...where they won't be exposed to strong magnetic fieIds
(such as those generated by motors, transformers or
magnets).
...vertically, in their original cases.

MemoryCards(GR-D93/73 only)
TO properly use and store your memory cards,
read the following cautions:
• During use...
... make sure the memory card bears the SD or
MultiMediaCard mark.

be sure to

... make sure the memory card is positioned properly when
inserting.
While the memory card is being accessed (during
recording, playback, deletion,
initialization,
etc.)...
... never unload the memory card and never turn off the
camcorder.
• Store memory cards...
...away from heaters or other heat sources.
... out of direct sunlight.
...where they won't be subject to unnecessary shock or
vibration.
...where they won't be exposed to strong magnetic fieIds
(such as those generated by motors, transformers or
magnets).
•

46 ENCAUTIONS
LCDMonitor
• TO prevent damage to the LeD monitor, DO NOT...
...push it strongly or apply any shocks.
,..place the camcorder with the LCD monitor on the bottom,
• TO prolong service life...
,..avoid rubbing it with coarse cloth.
• Be aware of the following phenomena
for LCD
monitor use. These are not malfunctions...
...While using the camcorder, the surface around the LeD
monitor and/or the back of the LeD monitor may heat up.
...If you leave power on for a feng time, the surface around
the LCD monitor becomes hot.

MainUnit
• For safety, DO NOT...
...open the camcordeCs chassis.
...disassemble or modify the unit.
... short+circuit the terminals of the battery pack. Keep it away
from metallic objects when not in use.
... alfew inflammables, water or metallic objects to enter the
unit.
...remove the battery pack or disconnect the power supply
while the power is on.
...leave the battery pack attached when the camcorder is not
ir_ use.
• Avoid using the unit...
...in places subject to excessive humidity or dust.
...in places subject to soot or steam such as near a cooking
stove.
...in places subject to excessive shock or vibration.
... near a television set.
... near appliances generating strong magnetic or electric
fields (speakers, broadcasting antennas, etc.).
...in places subject to extremely high (over 40°C or t 04°F) or
extremely low (under 0°C or 32°F) temperatures.
• DO NOT leave the unit...
...in places of over 50°C (t 22°F).
...in places where humidity is extremely low (below 35%) or
extremely high (above 80%).
...in direct sunlight.
...in a closed car in summer.
...near a heater.
• TO protect the unit, DO NOT...
... alfew it to become wet.
...drop the unit or strike it against hard objects.
...subject it to shock or excessive vibration during
transportation.
...keep the lens directed at extremely bdght objects for long
periods.
...expose the Iens and viewfindefs fens to direct sunlighb
...carry it by holding the LCD monitor or the viewfieder.
... swing it excessively when using the hand strap or the grip.
...swing the soft camera case excessively when the
camcorder is inside it.
• Dirty heads can cause the following problems:

...No picture dedng playback.
... Blocks of noise appear during pIayback.
... During recording, the Head Clog Warning indicator '+_
appears.
... Recording cannot be performed properly.

in such cases, use an optional cfeaning Cassette. Insert it and
play back. If the cassette is used more than once
consecutively, damage to the video heads may result. After
the camcorder plays back for about 20 seconds, it stops
autometicall_ Also refer to the cleaning cassette's
instructions.
If, after using the cfeaning cassette, the problems stilI exist,
consult your nearest JVC deafe_
Mechanical moving parts used to move the video heads and
video tape tend to become dirty and worn out over time. _n
order to maintain a clear picture at all times, periodic checkups are recommended after using the unit for about t,OOO
hours. For periodic check+ups please consult your nearest
JVC dealer.

HowToHandleACD-ROM
