About the "InfoLITHIUM" battery
pack
•Have spare battery packs handy for two or
three times the expected recording time, and
make a trial recording before taking the actual
recording.
• Do not expose the battery pack to water. The
battery pack is not water resistant.
Remaining battery time indicator
•If the power goes off even although the
remaining battery time indicator indicates that
the battery pack has enough power to operate,
charge the battery pack fully again so that the
indication on the remaining battery time
indicator is correct. Note, however, that the
correct battery indication sometimes will not be
restored if it is used in high temperatures for a
long time or left in a fully charged state, or the
battery pack is frequently used. Regard the
remaining battery time indication as an
approximate shooting time.
•The E mark indicating there is little remaining
battery time sometimes flashes depending on
the operating conditions or ambient
temperature and environment even if the
remaining battery time is about 5 to 10 minutes.
How to store the battery pack
•Even if the battery pack is not used for a long
time, remove the battery pack from the
camcorder, store it in a dry, cool place after
fully charging it once per year and then using
the battery pack fully on your camcorder. This
is to maintain the battery pack's functions.
•To use the battery pack fully on your
camcorder, turn on your camcorder and leave it
as it is without a cassette inserted.
Battery life
•The battery life is limited. Battery capacity
drops little by little as you use it more and
more, and as time passes. When the available
battery time is shortened considerably, a
probable cause is that the battery pack has
reached the end of its life. Please buy a new
battery pack.
•The battery life varies according to how it is
stored, the operating conditions, and the
environment for each battery pack.
