The service manual when downloaded and printed out was clear and easy to read. The manual is complete with the schematic diagram and technical data. I occasionally require a manual and now having registered with this company I shall order from them in the future.
Hello from Germany - thank you very much for the manual for my Sharp "Searcher" - the handling of your internet area is outstanding..Mike

Charging a battery Installed in the Camcorder . . .
If you attach the camcorder with a battery installed to the Video Capture Docking Station, you can charge the battery. First make sure that the camcorder does not have a DC cord connected to it before attaching. Turn the camcorder's Power Dial to "OFF" then perform the following steps. 1. Connect the Video Capture Docking Station to the AC Power Adapter/Charger. �The Video Capture Docking Station does not use the camcorder's battery to function. Be sure to connect the AC Power Adapter/Charger exclusively for use with the camcorder. 2. Connect the power cord to an AC outlet. �The Docking Station's charger indicator begins (CHARGE) blinking to indicate that the charge has begun. When it stops blinking and lights steadily, the charge is complete. It takes approx. 2 hours to charge the battery fully.
