The built-in, rechargeable backup battery retains the date and time and the time code data. The built-in
battery is constantly being charge whenever the GY -DV300 is connected to a power supply , but it gradually
discharges while the GY-DV300 is disconnected from a power supply . The battery will be fully discharged
when the GY-DV300 is not used for about three months, in which case the set date and time and time
code data are reset. In this case, recharge the built-in battery and then set the date and time and time
code data again.
However, it is possible to use the GY-DV300 even if the built-in battery is discharged but the date and time
and time code data cannot be recorded.
