Charging the pre-installed
rechargeable battery
Your camcorder has a pre-installed rechargeable
battery to retain the date, time, and other settings
even when the POWER switch is set to OFF. The
pre-installed rechargeable battery is always
charged while your camcorder is connected to the
wall outlet (wall socket) via the AC Adaptor or
while the battery pack is attached. The
rechargeable battery will be fully discharged in
about
3 months
if you do not use your
camcorder at all without the AC Adaptor
connected or the battery pack attached. Use your
camcorder after charging the pre-installed
rechargeable battery.
However, even if the pre-installed rechargeable
battery is not charged, the camcorder operation
will not be affected as long as you are not
recording the date.

Procedures
Connect your camcorder to a wall outlet (wall
socket) using the supplied AC Adaptor, and leave
it with the power turned off for more than 24
hours.
Note on disposal/transfer of the
memory card
Even if you delete data in the memory card or
format the memory card on your camcorder or a
computer, you may not delete data from the
memory card completely. When you give the
memory card to somebody, it is recommended
that you delete data completely using data
deletion software on a computer. Also, when you
dispose of the memory card, it is recommended
that you destroy the actual body of the memory
card.
Operation is not guaranteed when using a card
adaptor.
