Specification - Sony Handycam DCR-TRV380 Operation Manual

• To prevent molds periodically clean the lens
as described above.
It is recommended you operate your camcorder
about once a month to keep it in an optimum
state for a long time.
To charge the pre-installed
rechargeable battery
Your camcorder has a pre-installed
rechargeable battery to retain the date, time, and
other settings even when the POWER switch is
set to (CHG) OFF. The pre-installed
rechargeable battery is always charged while
you are using your camcorder but it will get
discharged gradually if you do not use your
camcorder. The rechargeable battery will be
fully discharged in about 3 months if you do not
use your camcorder at all. However, even if the
pre-installed rechargeable battery is not
charged, the camcorder operation will not be
affected as long as you are not recording the
date.
Procedures
Connect your camcorder to a wall outlet using
the supplied AC Adaptor, and leave it with the
POWER switch set to (CHG) OFF for more
than 24 hours.
