Continuous recording (without zoom)
The times shown in the table reflect the available recording time when the HD camcorder is in the recording mode
without using any other functions. In actual recording, the battery pack may discharge 2-3 times faster than this
reference since the Record start/stop and Zoom are being operated, and playback is performed. Assume that the
recordable time with a fully charged battery pack is between 1/2 and 1/3 of the time in the table, and enough battery
packs to allow for the time you are planning to record on the HD camcorder.
Note that the battery pack discharges faster in a cold environment.
• The charging time will vary depending on the remaining battery level.
• To check the remaining battery charge, press and hold the Display (

About battery packs
• The battery pack should be recharged in an environment that is between 0°C (32°F) and 40°C (104°F). However,
when it is exposed to cold temperatures (below 0°C (32°F)), its usage time becomes reduced and it may cease
to function. If this happens, place the battery pack in your pocket or other warm, protected place for a short time,
then re-insert it in the HD camcorder.
• Do not put the battery pack near any heat source (i.e. fire or a heater).
• Do not disassemble, apply pressure to, or heat the battery pack.
• Do not allow battery pack terminals to be short-circuited. It may cause leakage, heat generation, induce
overheating or fire.
