Charging time Continuous recording time

Place the battery flat along the mark

on the AC adapter, and slide it into

position.

OIf the DC cable is connected to the AC

adapter, disconnect it before proceeding.

The battery cannot be charged if this cable

is connected.

Connect the AC cable to the power outlet.

OThe “POWER” lamp and “CHARGE” lamp

on the AC adapter light up, and charging

commences.

OIf the “CHARGE” lamp fails to light when

the battery has been mounted, re-mount

the battery.

Upon completion of the charging, the

CHARGE

Approx. 330 minutes Approx. 330 (310) minutes

O The table above gives the approximate durations. The

figure in parentheses is the duration when the LCD monitor

is used.

O The durations in the above table apply when the ambient

temperature is 20°C and the relative humidity is 60%.

Charging may take longer at other temperature and

humidity levels.

O Do not bring metal objects (such as

necklaces or hairpins) into contact with

the battery terminals. The terminals

may short circuit and generate heat, and

touching them in this condition may

cause severe burns.

O The battery heats up during operation and

during charging, as does the camera

recorder body.

O If recording and stop operations are

repeated more than is necessary, the

recording time will be less than the values

given in the above table.

O Store the battery only when it is fully

discharged. It is recommended that the

battery be charged once a year when it is

being stored long-term and that it be placed

back in storage after it has been fully

discharged using the camera recorder.

O When the temperature of the battery unit

has risen to an extremely high level or

dropped to an extremely low level or when

the battery is not used for prolonged

periods of time has become fully

discharged, the “CHARGE” lamp flashes

several times, and charging commences

automatically.

O If the “CHARGE” lamp continues to flash

even though the battery temperature is

normal, consult your dealer as a problem

may have developed within the battery or

AC adapter.

O When the battery is warm, it takes longer

than usual for the battery to be charged.

O When the AC adapter is used near a radio,

the radio sound may be distorted. Use the

adapter at a distance of at least one meter

from the radio.

O Noise may be heard while the AC adapter

is in use; however, this is normal and not

indicative of any malfunctioning.

O The battery cannot be charged while

supplying power from the AC adapter to the

camera recorder.
