Built-in rechargeable battery
• Your camcorder includes a built-in rechargeable battery that retains the date and time
settings even after you turn the camcorder’s power off.
•
If the rechargeable battery discharges completely, the current date/time values are reset
to the default values. If this occurs, you need to recharge the built-in rechargeable battery
(see below), and then re-set the date and time.
• Battery capacity decreases over time and through repeated use. If you find the decreased
usage time between charges becomes significant, ask your local Samsung retailer.

•
If you do not connect the camcorder to AC power or attach the battery pack for two

connecting the camcorder to the AC adaptor for 24 hours.
