The camcorder 

operates slowly when 

switching between 

video mode and still 

image mode, or when 

switching the power on 

or off.

 If there are many files (such as video) in the camcorder, it takes 

time for the camcorder to respond. It is recommended that you 

copy all files from the camcorder onto your computer, and erase 

the files from the camcorder.

The lamp does not 

flash during battery 

pack charging.

 Check the remaining battery pack charge. 

(When the battery pack is fully charged, the lamp does not flash.)

 When recharging in either a hot or cold environment, ensure that 

battery is being charged within the permitted temperature range. 

(If the battery pack is being recharged outside the permitted 

temperature range, recharging may stop to protect the battery 

pack.)
