Built-in Rechargeable Lithium Battery
The camcorder has a built-in rechargeable lithium battery to keep the date/time and other settings.
The built-in lithium battery is recharged while you use the camcorder; however, it will discharge
completely if you do not use the camcorder for about 3 months.
To recharge the built-in lithium battery:
Connect the compact power adapter to the camcorder and
leave it connected for 24 hours with the camcorder off.
Disposal
When you delete clips or initialize an SD card, only the file allocation table is altered and stored data is
not physically erased. When you dispose of an SD card or give either to another person, initialize it first
(

original recordings very difficult.
