The battery
Before using the battery, fully charge it with the AC
adapter.
Keep a spare battery with you.
1 Align the battery with the “ ” marking on the
AC adapter, place it flat, and slide it in the
direction shown below.
• You cannot charge the battery if the DC cord
is connected to the DC OUT connector, so
disconnect it first.
2 Plug the AC cord into the power outlet.
• The POWER lamp and CHARGE lamp on the
AC adapter light, and charging begins.
• If the CHARGE lamp does not light when
attached, detach the battery and then attach
it again.
3 When the battery is charged, the CHARGE
lamp on the AC adapter goes out.
4 Slide the battery and remove it.

time
Approx. 330 min. Approx. 360 (or 300) min.
• Keep metal objects (such as necklaces
and hairpins) away from the battery. Short-
circuiting may occur across the terminals,
causing the battery to heat up, and you
may seriously burn yourself if you touch
the battery in this state.
• The battery becomes hot while it is being
used or charged.
The camera-recorder itself also becomes hot
during use.
• The recordable time reduces if you repeatedly
start and stop recording.
• Discharge the battery before storing it.
When storing it for an extended time, charge it
at least once a year, use up its charge in the
camera-recorder, and then store it again.
• If the battery is extremely hot or cold, the
CHARGE lamp will blink several times before
charging starts.
• If the CHARGE lamp continues to blink even
when the battery temperature is normal, there
may be something wrong with the battery or
AC adapter. Contact your dealer.
• The battery takes longer to charge when it is
warm.
• The AC adapter can interfere with radio
reception so keep radios at least 1 meter
away from it.
• The AC adapter may make some noise when
you are using it, but this is normal.
• You cannot charge the battery when supplying
power to the camera-recorder from the AC
adapter.
