About date/time
The date and time function are driven by a built-
in lithium battery.
Make sure to check the time before recording
because the built-in clock is not very accurate.
ª
Recharging the built-in lithium battery
If [0] or [--] is indicated when the Camcorder is
turned on, then the built-in lithium battery has
run down. Connect the AC adaptor to the
Camcorder or place the battery on the
Camcorder, and the built-in lithium battery will
be recharged. Leave the Camcorder as is for
approx. 24 hours, and the battery will drive the
date and time for approx. 6 months. (Even if the
[OFF/ON] switch is set to [OFF], the battery is
still being recharged.)
