Using the Lithium Ion Battery Pack
✤ The amount of continuous recording time available depends on :

It is recommended that you have several batteries available.
Charging the Lithium Ion Battery Pack

2. Connect the AC Power adapter to an AC cord and connect the AC
cord to a wall socket.

start to flash, showing that the battery is charging.
