About the “InfoLITHIUM” battery pack
Remaining battery time indicator
•If the power goes off although the remaining battery time indicator indicates that the
battery pack has enough power to operate, charge the battery pack fully again so that
the indication on the remaining battery time indicator is correct. Note, however, that
the correct battery indication sometimes will not be restored if it is used in high
temperatures for a long time or left in a fully charged state, or the battery pack is
frequently used. Regard the remaining battery time indication as the approximate
shooting time.
•The E mark indicating little remaining battery time sometimes flashes depending on
the operating conditions or ambient temperature and environment even if the
remaining battery time is about 5 to 10 minutes.
How to store the battery pack
•If the battery pack is not used for a long time, do the following procedure once per
year to maintain proper function.
1. Fully charge the battery pack.
2. Discharge on your electronic equipment.
3. Remove the battery pack from the equipment and store it in a dry, cool place.
•To use the battery pack up on your camcorder, leave your camcorder during tape
recording standby until the power goes off without a cassette inserted.
Battery life
•The battery life is limited. Battery capacity drops little by little as you use it more and
more, and as time passes. When the available battery time is shortened considerably, a
probable cause is that the battery pack has reached the end of its life. Please buy a new
battery pack.
•The battery life varies depending on how it is stored and operating conditions and
environment for each battery pack.
