Sony DCR-TRV20 Manual

Use the battery pack after charging it for your camcorder.
Your camcorder operates only with the “InfoLITHIUM” battery pack (M series).

(1) Open the DC IN jack cover, pulling the cover out a little and rotating. Connect

the AC power adaptor supplied with your camcorder to the DC IN jack on
your camcorder with the plug’s v mark facing the lens side.

(2) Connect the power cord to the AC power adaptor.
(3) Connect the power cord to the wall outlet.
(4) Set the POWER switch to OFF (CHG). Charging begins. The remaining battery

time is indicated in minutes on the display window.

When the remaining battery indicator changes to 

, normal charge is completed. To

fully charge the battery (full charge), leave the battery pack attached for about one hour
after normal charge is completed until FULL appears in the display window. Fully
charging the battery allows you to use the battery longer than usual.

Disconnect the AC power adaptor from the DC IN jack on your camcorder.

of the AC power adaptor. This may cause a short-circuit, damaging the AC power
adaptor.

fully and then use it until it fully discharges again. Keep the battery pack in a cool
