Notes on Using the Batteries
Charging and Recording Times
• These times vary — the safest policy is always to have 2 or 3 times as many
battery packs as you think you will need.
• You will get more recording time if you turn the camcorder off between
shots, instead of leaving it in record pause mode.
• Charge the battery pack in temperatures between 5°C and 40°C (41°F and
104°F).
• The charging time varies depending on the charging conditions.
• You can use the battery pack between 0° and 40°C (32° to 104°F), but it
works best between 10° and 30°C (50° to 86°F). Operating time will be
shorter than usual at low temperatures like a ski ground. For better
operating results, the battery pack can be warmed in your pocket or
someplace and then used.
• If the battery pack starts to give you much less operating time than usual
(at normal temperatures), it has reached the end of its life and must be
replaced.
• These figures show how long you can view playback with the LCD, after
attaching a fully-charged battery pack. Playback time will be shortened at
low temperatures.
* Typical Recording Time: Approximate times for recording with repeated
operations such as start/stop, zooming and power on/off. The actual time
may be shorter.
