To charge by connecting to other device

It is possible to charge by connecting to another device with the USB cable (supplied).

Do not use any other AC adaptors except the supplied one.

We recommend using Panasonic batteries (

l

6).

If you use other batteries, we cannot guarantee the quality of this product.

Do not heat or expose to flame.

Do not leave the battery(ies) in a car exposed to direct sunlight for a long period of time 
with doors and windows closed.

Charging and recording time

Charging/Recording time

Temperature: 25

o

C/humidity: 60%RH

Charging times in parentheses are when charging from the USB terminal.

These times are approximations.

The indicated charging time is for when the battery has been discharged completely. 
Charging time and recordable time vary depending on the usage conditions such as 
high/low temperature.

The actual recordable time refers to the recordable time when repeatedly starting/stopping 
recording, turning the unit on/off, moving the zoom lever etc.

The batteries heat up after use or charging. This is not a malfunction.
