Notes:
• If you store a partially charged battery
for a long period of time, its
performance is reduced.
• During charging or discharging, the
camcorder can’t be operated.
• Charging and discharging isn’t possible if
the wrong type of battery is used.
• If the battery operation time remains
extremely short even after having been
fully charged, the battery is worn out
and needs to be replaced. Please
purchase a new one.
