rechargeable battery
Your camcorder is supplied with a built-in rechargeable battery installed so as to retain
the date and time, etc., regardless of the setting of the POWER switch. The built-in
rechargeable battery is always charged as long as you are using your camcorder. The
btittery, however, will get discharged gradually if you do not use your camcorder. It
will be completely discharged in about 3 months if you do not use your camcorder at
all. Even if the built-in rechargeable battery is not charged, it will not affect the
camcorder operation. To retain the date and time, etc., charge the battery if the battery
is discharged.
