GETTING STARTED
NOTES:
cThe recording time per charge is affected by such factors as the time spent in Record-Standby mode and the
frequency of zooming. It is safer to have spare battery packs to cover 3 times the planned shooting time.
cCharging times noted on page 8 are for a fully discharged battery pack, and discharging times are for a fully
charged battery pack.
cCharging and discharging times vary according to the ambient temperature and the status of the battery pack.
cRemember to set the charge marker after charging a battery pack or after detaching a discharged one from
your camcorder.
cPerform the REFRESH function after no less than 5 chargings.
cWhile the AC Power Adapter/ChargerOs power cord is disconnected from the AC outlet, it is possible to
discharge the battery by pressing the REFRESH switch. During that time, the AC Power Adapter/Charger does
not charge the battery. When discharging is complete, detach the battery from the AC Power Adapter/
Charger to store it.
cHigh temperatures can damage the battery pack, so use only where good ventilation is available. Do not
allow it to discharge in a container, such as a bag.
cIf you stop recharging or discharging part way through, make sure to remove the battery pack before
unplugging the adapterOs AC cord.
cRemove the battery pack from the adapter immediately after discharging.
cTo avoid interference with reception, do not use the AC Power Adapter/Charger near a radio.
