How Much Power Is Left?
E
The indicator in the display shows you
approximately how much charge the battery
pack has left:
Notes:
• When the power is completely exhausted,
"CHANGE THE BATTERY PACK" appears
in the display for 4 seconds and the
empty battery mark starts to flash. The
power indicator light also flashes.
• The indicator is not constant — it varies
with the condition under which battery
pack and camcorder are used.
When to Recharge
You can recharge a lithium ion battery pack whenever it is convenient. Unlike
a conventional battery pack, it does not have to be fully discharged first.
However, as the battery pack will naturally discharge itself over time, it is
best to charge it the same day you plan to use it, or the day before.
Taking Care of the Battery Pack
Always attach the terminal cover.
• Do not allow any metal objects to
touch the terminals, as this can
cause a short circuit and damage
the battery pack. Attach the
terminal cover whenever the
battery pack is not being used.
Keep the terminals clean.
• The camcorder, adapter or battery pack will not work properly if the
terminals are dirty. Attach the terminal cover whenever the battery pack is
not being used.
Storing the battery pack.
• Storing a charged battery pack for long periods of time (about 1 year) can
shorten its lifecycle or affect performance. We recommend to discharge
the battery pack in the camcorder fully and to store it in a dry place. If you
do not use the battery pack for long periods of time, charge it fully and
discharge it fully in the camcorder at least once a year before returning it
to storage.
