Regarding Built-in Rechargeable Battery
To store the date/time in memory, a rechargeable
clock lithium battery is integrated in the camcorder.
While the camcorder is connected to an AC outlet
using the AC Power Adapter/Charger, or while the
battery pack installed in the camcorder continues to
supply power to the camcorder, the clock lithium
battery is always charged. However, if the
camcorder is not used for approx. 3 months, the
clock lithium battery will become discharged and
the date/time stored in memory will be lost. When
this occurs, first connect the camcorder to an AC
outlet using the AC Power Adapter/Charger etc. for
over 24 hours to charge the clock lithium battery.
Then perform the date/time setting before using the
camcorder.
It is also possible to use the camcorder without the
date/time setting.
NOTE:
If you don't exit the Date/Time Menu, the clock
display will not move but the camcorder's internal
clock continues to operate. Once you close the
menu, the date and time begin operation from the
current date and time, with no delay or loss.
