compatible electronic equipment about its battery consumption. Sony recommends that
you use the “InfoLITHIUM” battery pack with electronic equipment having the

Notes
•The time display shows the approximate time when charging at 50°F to 86°F (10°C to
30°C). The time display may differ from the actual charging time depending on using
conditions and circumstances.
•The time display may show “– – – –” in the following cases. However, the AC
adaptor/charger is not malfunctioning.
The remaining battery time is less than 5 minutes.
There is a difference between the displayed time and actual charging time. Even if
this happens, continue charging.
•Full charge requires about 1 hour after normal charge is completed. If you remove the
battery pack between normal charge and full charge, the charging time may not be
displayed properly in the next charging.
•If the charging time is not displayed properly, fully charge the battery pack. The
charging time will be displayed properly.
•When you attach a fully charged battery pack to this AC adaptor/charger, “TIME TO
CHG FULL 1h” may appear on the display. However, this is not a malfunction.
•You may wait for a while after pressing DISPLAY CHANGE until the display shows
the time indication.
• To display the remaining battery time of a new battery, attach it to your camcorder
and use it for about 30 seconds. Then, charge the battery with the AC adaptor/
charger.
