About the battery
Battery properties
A lithium-ion battery is small-sized and has a high capacity. Low
ambient temperature (below 50ºF (10ºC)) may shorten its usage
time and affect its function. Before recording in low temperatures,
put the battery into your pocket to warm it, then install it in the
camcorder.
Make sure to store the battery separately after use.
-
A small amount of battery power is consumed when the
battery is stored in the camcorder even if the camcorder
power is off.
-
The battery may be completely discharged, if it has been
installed and left in the camcorder for a long period of time.
If this occurs, the battery may not fully operate even if you
charge it.
-
If the battery is not used for a long time, fully charge the
battery and then, using your camcorder, drain the charge
completely. Do this once every 3 months to keep the battery
functioning properly. To store the battery, remove it from your
camcorder and put it in a cool, dry place.
Charge an extra battery before using the camcorder
outdoors in cold temperatures.
-
The cold temperature may shorten the length of time you can
use the battery before needing to recharge it.
-
Carry the supplied USB cable and power adaptor to charge
the battery while travelling.
Check whether the battery terminal is damaged if the battery
falls or is dropped.
-
If you install a battery with the damaged terminal into the
camcorder, you can damage the camcorder.
Remove the battery and the memory card from the
camcorder and disconnect the power adaptor after use.
-
Store the battery in a stable, cool, and dry place.
(Recommended temperature : 59ºF~77ºF (15ºC~25ºC),
recommended humidity: 40%~60%)
-
Temperatures that are too high or too low shorten the battery
lifetime.
-
The battery terminals can become rusty or malfunction if the
battery is stored in a smoky or dusty location.
Recycle or dispose of your dead batteries properly.
The battery lifetime is limited.
-
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 with a new
one.
-
Each battery’s life is affected by storage, and operating and
environmental conditions.
