About the battery life • Battery capacity decreases over time and through repeated use. If decreased usage time between charges becomes significant, it is probably time to replace the battery it with a new one. • Each battery's life is affected by storage, operating, and environmental conditions. About the running time • Times listed were measured when using the camcorder at 77˚F (25˚C). As the environmental temperature and conditions vary, the actual battery time may differ from the approximate times given in the table. • The recording and playback time may be shorter depending on the conditions under which you use your camcorder. For example, in actual recording, the battery may discharge 2-3 times faster than listed if you use Record start/stop and Zoom frequently, and use playback to view your recordings. Assume that the recordable time with a fully charged battery is between 1/2 and 1/3 of the time in the table, so have enough batteries to allow for the time you are planning to record on the camcorder. • The recording and playback time will be shorter when you use your camcorder in low temperatures. On the battery • The charging (CHG) indicator blinks during charging, or battery Info will not be correctly displayed under the following conditions: - The battery is not inserted correctly. - The battery is damaged. - The battery is worn-out. (For the battery information only) Using an AC power source We recommend that you use the AC power adaptor to power the camcorder from a household AC outlet when you set functions, play back, or edit images, or use it indoors. Make the same connections as you do when charging the battery. page 16 On the AC power adaptor • Use a nearby wall outlet when using the AC power adaptor. Disconnect the AC power adaptor from the wall outlet immediately if any malfunction occurs while using your camcorder. • Do not use the AC power adaptor in a narrow space, such as between a wall and furniture. • Do not short-circuit the DC plug of the AC power adaptor or battery terminals with any metallic objects. This may cause a malfunction. • Even if your camcorder is turned off, AC power is still supplied to it while connected to the wall outlet via the AC power adaptor. 19
