Checking the Remaining Battery Charge
When the camcorder is turned on, you can check the remaining battery charge by looking at any recording/
playback screen or the [Battery/Hour Meter] status screen (A 144). When the camcorder is turned off, use one
of the following methods to check the approximate remaining battery charge of a battery compatible with
Intelligent System.
Press the CHECK button on the battery pack. An indicator will light for
approximately 3 seconds and show the approximate remaining battery
charge.
0-25%
26-50%
51-75%
76-100%
Press the BATT. INFO button to display the approximate remaining
battery charge for about 5 seconds. Depending on the battery life, the
battery information may not be displayed.
NOTES
• The first time you use a battery pack, fully charge it and then use the camcorder until the battery pack is
completely exhausted. Doing so will ensure that the remaining recording time will be displayed accurately in
the various recording/playback screens.
• Repeatedly charging and discharging the battery pack will eventually shorten its battery life. You can check the
battery life on the [Battery/Hour Meter] status screen (A 144) or the battery information screen (press the
BATT. INFO button while the camcorder is turned off). Fully charging the battery pack and then discharging it
will give you a more accurate reading.
• USA and Canada only: The Lithium ion/polymer battery that powers the product is recyclable.
Please call 1-800-8-BATTERY for information on how to recycle this battery.
