 Remaining battery time

• The icon shows a rough estimate of 

the remaining charge as a 
percentage of the full charge of the 
battery pack. The remaining recording/playback time of the battery pack is displayed, 
in minutes, next to the icon.

• When 

 is displayed in red, replace the battery pack with a fully charged one.

• When you attach an empty battery pack, the power may turn off without displaying 

.

• The first time you use a battery pack, fully charge it and then use the camcorder until 

the battery pack is completely exhausted. Doing so will ensure that the remaining 
recording time will be displayed accurately.

• Depending on the conditions under which the camcorder and the battery pack are 

used, the actual battery charge may not be indicated accurately.

• When the camcorder is off, press 

H

 to display the charge status of a 

battery pack. The Intelligent System will display the charge status (as a percentage) 
and the remaining recording time (in minutes) for 5 seconds. If the battery pack is 
exhausted, the battery information may not be displayed.

Troubleshooting

If you have a problem with your camcorder, refer to this section. Some-
times what you think is a malfunction of the camcorder may have the 
simplest of solutions - please read the “CHECK THIS FIRST” box 
before going on to the more detailed problems and solutions. Consult 
your dealer or a Canon Service Center if the problem persists.

CHECK THIS FIRST

Power source

The camcorder will not turn on or it turns off by itself.

- The battery pack is exhausted. Replace or charge the battery pack.
- Remove the battery pack and reattach it correctly.
- When the recording program is set to [Underwater] or [Surface], the camcorder may turn off 

automatically if it becomes too hot. Turn off the camcorder and let it cool down.

Cannot charge the battery pack.

- Make sure the camcorder is off so charging can start.
- The temperature of the battery pack is outside the charging range. If the battery pack’s tem-

perature is below 0 °C (32 °F), warm it before charging it; if it is above 40 °C (104 °F), let the 
battery pack cool down before charging it.

- Charge the battery pack in temperatures between 0 °C and 40 °C (32 °F and 104 °F).
- The battery pack is faulty. Replace the battery pack.

Power supply

• Is the battery charged? Is the compact power adapter correctly con-

nected to the camcorder? (

"

23)

Recording

• Did you turn the camcorder on and correctly set it to a recording 

mode? (

"

42, 58, 104) If you are recording on a memory card, is one 

correctly inserted into the camcoder? (

"

38)

Playback

• Did you turn the camcorder on and correctly set it to playback mode? 

(

"

49, 100) If you are playing back recordings from a memory card, 

is one correctly inserted into the camcorder? (

"

38) Does it contain 

any recordings?

Other

• Does the camcorder make a rattling sound? The internal lens fixture 

can move when the camcorder is turned off or in a playback mode. 

This is not a malfunction.
