Getting started
Step 1  Preparing the power supply
Connecting to a wall outlet
When you use your VCR for an extended period, we recommend that you power it
from a wall outlet using the AC power adaptor.
(1) Open the DC IN jack cover and connect the AC power adaptor to the DC IN
jack on your VCR with the plug’s v mark facing right.
(2) Connect the power cord to the AC power adaptor.
(3) Connect the power cord to a wall outlet.
PRECAUTION
The set is not disconnected from the AC power source (house current) as long as it is
connected to the wall outlet, even if the set itself has been turned off.
Notes
•The AC power adaptor can supply power even if the battery pack (not supplied) is
attached to your VCR.
•The DC IN jack has “source priority.” This means that the battery pack (not supplied)
cannot supply any power if the power cord is connected to the DC IN jack, even when
the power cord is not plugged into a wall outlet.
•Keep the AC power adaptor away from your VCR if the picture is disturbed.
When you use your VCR outdoors
Use the battery pack (not supplied) (p.8).
Using a car battery
Use the Sony DC Adaptor/Charger (not supplied).
