Charging the battery pack
Your battery pack has been partially charged before it left the factory. It should
have enough power for you to check that your camcorder is working properly.
Charge the battery pack fully using the Battery Charger CB-2LT if you want it to
power the camcorder for more than a few minutes.
Always turn the camcorder off before attaching/removing the battery pack.
1. Attach the battery pack to the charger.
• Align the front end of the battery pack with the guides on the charger, then
press and slide the battery pack into the charger to set it in place.
2. Flip out the retractable plug. Plug the AC plug into a household
power socket.
• According to the type of household power socket you have, other sockets
may be blocked while the charger is in use.
3. The charge indicator lights in red and charging starts.
4. The indicator light changes to green when the battery pack is fully
charged.
5. Unplug the charger from the household power socket.
6. Remove the battery pack by sliding it out.
7. Push the plug back into its retracted position.
Note:
• You can find details on using the battery pack in the “Notes on Using the
Battery Pack” (
145). These notes include charging and recording times and
