Please purchase a new one. ● Since the AC Adapter processes electricity internally, it becomes warm during use. Be sure to use it only in well-ventilated areas. ● Using the optional AA-VF7 Battery Charger, you can charge the BN-VF707U/VF714U/VF733U battery pack without the camcorder. ● After 5 minutes has elapsed in Record-Standby mode with the cassette inserted and no operation is performed ("PAUSE" indicator may not appear), the camcorder will automatically turn off its power supplied from the AC adapter.
