Battery packs
When not using the DVD camcorder for an extended period:
It is recommended that you fully charge the battery pack once a year, attach it to the DVD camcorder and use it up;
then remove the battery pack and store it in a cool and dry place again.
The supplied battery pack is a lithium-ion battery. Before using the supplied battery pack or an optional battery pack,
be sure to read the following cautions:
To avoid hazards
- Do not burn.
- Do not short-circuit the terminals. When transporting, carry the battery in a plastic bag.
- Do not modify or disassemble.
- Do not expose the battery to temperatures exceeding 60°C (140°F), as this may cause the battery to overheat, explode or
catch fire.
To prevent damage and prolong service life
- Do not subject to unnecessary shock.
- Charge in an environment where temperatures are within the tolerances shown as below.
This is a chemical reaction-type battery - cooler temperatures impede chemical reaction, while warmer temperatures can
prevent complete charging.
-
Store in a cool, dry place. Extended exposure to high temperatures will increase natural discharge and shorten service life.
-
Remove from charger or powered unit when not in use, as some machines use electric current even when switched off.
It is recommended that only genuine Samsung batteries are used in this camcorder. Using generic non-Samsung batteries
can cause damage to the internal charging circuitry.
It is normal for the battery pack to be warm after charging, or after use.
