About the battery
The battery used in the movie camera is a
rechargeable lithium ion battery. This battery is
susceptible to temperature and humidity, and the
effect of temperature increases with increasing or
decreasing temperature. In the low temperature
range, the fully charged indication may not
appear, or the low battery indication may appear
about 5 minutes after the start of use. At high
temperature, moreover, the protection function
may work, disabling use of the movie camera.
Be sure to detach the battery after use.
≥
If the battery is left attached to the movie
camera, a minute amount of current is
consumed even when the movie camera power
is [OFF]. If the battery is left attached to the
movie camera for a long time, over-discharge
takes place. The battery may become unusable
after it is charged.
≥
The battery should be stored in a cool place free
from humidity, with as constant temperature as
possible. (Recommended temperature: 15
o
C to
25
o
C, Recommended humidity: 40% to 60%)
≥
Extremely high temperatures or low
temperatures will shorten the life of the battery.
≥
If the battery is kept in a high-temperature,
high-humidity, or oily-smoky places, the
terminals may rust and cause malfunctions.
≥
To store the battery for a long period of time, we
recommend you charge it once every year and
store it again after you have completely used up
the charged capacity.
≥
Dust and other matter attached to the battery
terminals should be removed.
Prepare spare batteries when going out for
recording.
≥
Prepare batteries appropriate to 3 to 4 times the
period during you want to record pictures in. In
cold places such as a ski resort, the period
during which you can record pictures is
shortened.
≥
When you travel, do not forget to bring an AC
adaptor so that you can recharge the batteries
at your destination.
If you drop the battery accidentally, check to
see if the terminals are deformed.
≥
Attaching a deformed battery to the movie
camera or the AC adaptor may damage the
movie camera or the AC adaptor.
Do not throw old battery into fire.
≥
Heating a battery or throwing it into a fire may
result in an explosion.
≥
If the operating time is very short even after the
battery has been recharged, the battery has
worn out. Please purchase a new battery.
ª
About the AC
adaptor
≥
If the battery is warm, charging requires more
time than normal.
≥
If the temperature of the battery is extremely
high or extremely low, the [CHARGE] lamp may
continue flashing, and the battery may not be
charged. After the battery temperature has
decreased or increased sufficiently, recharging
starts automatically. So, wait for a while. If the
lamp still continues flashing even after the
recharging, the battery or the AC adaptor may
be faulty. If so, please contact a dealer.
≥
If you use the AC adaptor near a radio, radio
reception may be disturbed. Keep the AC
adaptor 1 metre or more away from radio.
≥
When using the AC adaptor, it may generate
whirring sounds. However, this is normal.
≥
After use, be sure to pull out the AC mains lead
from the AC mains socket. (If they are left
connected, a minute amount of current is
consumed.)
≥
Always keep the electrodes of the AC adaptor
and the battery clean.
