Battery Pack Handling Precautions DANGER! Treat the battery pack with care. E • Keep it away from fire (or it might explode). • Do not expose the battery pack to temperature higher than 140 ºF (60 ºC). Do not leave it near a heater or inside a car in hot weather. • Do not try to disassemble or modify it. • Do not drop or knock it. • Do not get it wet. ❍ Charged battery packs continue to discharge naturally. Therefore, charge them on the day of use, or the day before, to ensure a full charge. ❍ Attach the terminal cover whenever a battery pack is not in use. Contact to metallic objects may cause a short circuit and damage the battery pack. ❍ Dirty terminals may cause a poor contact between the battery pack and the camcorder. Wipe the terminals with a soft cloth. ❍ Since storing a charged battery pack for a long time (about 1 year) can shorten its lifecycle or affect performance, we recommend to discharge the battery pack fully and to store it in a dry place at temperatures no higher than 86 ˚F (30 ˚C). If you do not use the battery pack for long periods, charge and discharge it fully at least once a year. If you have more than 1 battery pack, perform these precautions at the same time for all battery packs. ❍ Although the battery pack's operating temperature range is from 32 ˚F to 104 ˚F (0 ˚C to 40 ˚C), the optimal range is from 50 ˚F to 86 ˚F (10 ˚C to 30 ˚C). At cold temperatures, performance will temporarily decline. Warm it in your pocket before use. ❍ Replace the battery pack if the usable time after full charge diminishes substantially at normal temperatures. About the battery terminal cover The battery terminal cover has a [ ]-shaped hole. This is useful when you wish to differentiate between charged and uncharged battery packs. For example, with charged battery packs, attach the terminal cover so that the [ ]-shaped hole shows the blue label.
