Tips for using the battery pack
Notes on the terminals
If the terminals (metal parts on the back) are not clean, the battery charge
duration will be shortened.
When the terminals are not clean or when the battery pack has not been used for a long
time, repeatedly install and remove the battery pack a few times. This improves the
contact condition. Also, wipe the + and – terminals with a soft cloth or paper.
Be sure to observe the following
• To prevent an accident caused by a short circuit, do not allow metal objects such
as a necklace to touch the battery terminals. When carrying the battery pack,
attach to the terminal cover. [b]
• Keep the battery pack away from fire.
• Keep the battery pack dry.
• Do not open or try to disassemble the battery pack.
• Do not expose the battery pack to any mechanical shock.

Notes on the battery case
– CCD-TR86/TR96 only
• Use only with alkaline batteries. You cannot use the battery case with
manganese batteries or size AA (LR6) rechargeable NiCd batteries.
• Battery life is remarkably shorter in a cold environment (lower than 50°F/10°C).
• Keep the metal part clean. If it gets dirty, wipe it with a soft cloth.
• Do not disassemble or convert the battery case.
• Do not expose the battery case to any mechanical shock.
• During recording, the battery case heats up. This is not cause for concern.
• Prevent the electrode in the battery case from coming in contact with a metal object.
• If you will not use the battery case for a long time, detach the battery case from the
camcorder and remove the batteries from the battery case.
