certain circumstances.
• When the power goes off even though the
remaining battery percent indicator indicates
that the battery pack has enough power to

correctly. Note, however, that the battery
indication will not be restored if it is used in
high temperatures for a long time, or if left in a
fully charged state, or when the battery pack is
frequently used. Use the remaining battery
percent indication as a rough guide only.
About storage of the battery pack
• If the battery pack is not used for a long time,
fully charge the battery pack and use it up on
your camcorder once a year to maintain proper
function. To store the battery pack, remove it
from your camcorder and put it in a dry, cool
place.
• To discharge the battery pack on your
camcorder completely, leave your camcorder in
recording standby until the power goes off.
