1
Place the battery flat along the
mark
on the AC adapter, and slide it into
position.
O
If the DC cable is connected to the AC
adapter, disconnect it before proceeding.
The battery cannot be charged if this cable
is connected.
2
Connect the AC cable to the power outlet.
O
The “POWER” lamp and “CHARGE” lamp
on the AC adapter light up, and charging
commences.
O
If the “CHARGE” lamp fails to light when
the battery has been mounted, re-mount
the battery.

Approx. 120 minutes
Approx. 90 (80) minutes
O
The table above gives the approximate durations. The
figure in parentheses is the duration when the LCD monitor
is used.
O
The durations in the above table apply when the ambient
temperature is 68°F (20°C) and the relative humidity is
60%. Charging may take longer at other temperature and
humidity levels.
O
Do not bring metal objects (such as
necklaces or hairpins) into contact with
the battery terminals. The terminals
may short circuit and generate heat, and
touching them in this condition may
cause severe burns.
O
The battery heats up during operation and
during charging, as does the camera
recorder body.
O
If recording and stop operations are
repeated more than is necessary, the
recording time will be less than the values
given in the above table.
O
Store the battery only when it is fully
discharged. It is recommended that the
battery be charged once a year when it is
being stored long-term and that it be placed
back in storage after it has been fully
discharged using the camera recorder.
O
When the temperature of the battery unit
has risen to an extremely high level or
dropped to an extremely low level or when
the battery is not used for prolonged
periods of time has become fully
discharged, the “CHARGE” lamp flashes
several times, and charging commences
automatically.
O
If the “CHARGE” lamp continues to flash
even though the battery temperature is
normal, consult your dealer as a problem
may have developed within the battery or
AC adapter.
O
When the battery is warm, it takes longer
than usual for the battery to be charged.
O
When the AC adapter is used near a radio,
the radio sound may be distorted. Use the
adapter at a distance of at least one meter
from the radio.
O
Noise may be heard while the AC adapter
is in use; however, this is normal and not
indicative of any malfunctioning.
O
The battery cannot be charged while
supplying power from the AC adapter to the
camera recorder.
