NOTES
• We recommend charging the battery pack in temperatures between 10 °C
and 30 °C (50 °F and 86 °F). If either the ambient temperature or the
battery pack's temperature is outside the range of approx. 0 °C to 40 °C
(32 °F to 104 °F), charging will not start.
• If remaining battery time is an issue, you can power the camcorder using
the compact power adapter so the battery pack will not be consumed.
• Charged battery packs continue to discharge naturally. Therefore, charge
them on the day of use, or the day before, to ensure a full charge.
• We recommend that you prepare battery packs to last 2 to 3 times longer
than you think you might need.
• USA and Canada only: The Lithium ion/polymer battery that
powers the product is recyclable. Please call
1-800-8-BATTERY for information on how to recycle this
battery.
