PREPARATIONS Battery Operation (Cont'd) Remaining Battery Power Display LCD monitor/Viewfinder When the remaining battery power is nearly exhausted, the following warnings will be generated. Viewfinder screen or LCD monitor When a Status screen is displayed (excluding the STATUS 2, 3 screen in the Camera mode) • Alarm indication: LOW VOLTAGE displayed. FRONT and BACK TALLY lamp on camera: Blinks Monitoring loudspeaker and PHONES jack: Alarm sound MEMO After the remaining battery power warnings appear, the GYHD110 automatically stops operation if the battery power operation is continued. Battery Recharge Times Battery pack Recharging time of a single pack Successive recharging time of two packs BN-V428 Approx. 3 hr. 20 min Approx. 6 hr. 40 min BN-V438 Approx. 4 hr. 20 min Approx. 8 hr. 40 min • When charged at temperatures between 20°C (68°F) and 25°C (77°F). • When charging battery packs after a long storage period, charging time will be longer than indicated above. • When two battery packs are attached, they will be recharged in the order that they are attached. Operating Time with Battery Pack When a fully charged battery pack is attached, the approximate continuous operating time is as follows Battery Pack Continuous Operating Time (at 25°C (77°F)) BN-V428 Approx. 40 minutes BN-V438 Approx. 60 minutes • Battery operating time may differ depending on the age of the battery pack, charging conditions and the operating environment, etc. Use the values in the table on the above for approximate reference times. • Operating time is reduced in areas with a cold environment. • Operating time is reduced when the power zoom lens and LCD are used frequently. Precautions for the Battery Pack • When the battery pack is not in use, it must be stored in a cool, dry place. Do not leave the battery pack in a place where it might be subject to a high temperature (under direct sunlight in a car, etc.), this could cause leakage of the fluid or shorten service life. • When the terminal section of the battery pack gets dirty, the operating time will be shortened. • If the operating time becomes greatly reduced even immediately after recharging, the service life of the battery pack is nearly finished. Purchase a new battery pack. Recharging • Recharge the battery pack after completely discharging it. Repeated recharging with residual charge remaining could result in reduced battery capacity. • If the battery capacity is reduced by repeating incomplete recharging, or recharging without discharging, once discharge the battery pack completely, then recharge it to restore the battery capacity. • If the battery pack is recharged with its internal temperature raised immediately after use, recharging may not be performed completely. • Perform charging in an environment where the temperature is between 10°C (50°F) and 35°C (95°F). 20°C (68°F) to 25°C (77°F) is the ideal temperature range for charging. If the environment is too cold, charging may not complete. 34 PREPARATIONS FOR OPERATION Turning the Power ON CH-1 BOTH CH-2 MONITOR SELECT DISPLAY ON OFF VTR FULL AUTO VTR indicator POWER switch VF BRIGHT USER 1 USER 2 SHUTTER ND FILTER 2 1 MENU OFF USER 3 STATUS WHT.BAL AUTO AUTO AUDIO CH-1 LEVEL CH-2 ON OFF POWER REC LCD BRIGHT - + AUDIO SELECT CH-1 CH-2 AUTO MANU CAM/VTR TC ProHD DISPLAY GENE.

The camera image is displayed in the viewfinder or on the LCD monitor. When a recordable videocassette is loaded, the GY-HD110 enters the record-standby mode automatically. "STBY" is displayed in the VTR operation mode indication area of the LCD monitor or in the viewfinder. In this condition, press the REC/VTR trigger button to start recording. * Playback is also possible in the Camera mode. Playback operation becomes possible when the STOP button is pressed to set the VTR operation mode indicator to indicate "STOP". VTR mode The GY-HD110 enters the VTR mode. The camera image will not be displayed in the viewfinder or on the LCD monitor. When a videocassette is loaded, the GY-HD110 enters the stop mode. "STOP" is displayed in the VTR operation mode indication area of the LCD monitor or in the viewfinder. HDV/DV input is possible through the IEEE1394 connector. (GY-HD110U/GY-HD111E only) Turning the Power OFF 1. Place the GY-HD110 in the record-standby or STOP mode. 2. Set the POWER switch to OFF. 3. Remove the battery pack or the power supply to the DC INPUT connector. (When the camera is not going to be used for a longer period.) CAUTION • Do not set the POWER switch to OFF while recording is taking place. Confirm that the "STBY" or "STOP" indication is shown in the VTR operation mode indication area before the power is turned off. Should the POWER switch accidentally be set to OFF during a recording, wait at least 5 seconds before turning the power on again. • Always set the POWER switch to OFF before disconnecting the power supply. Do not turn the battery pack or AC power supply OFF while the POWER switch on the camera is still set to ON. 35
