About date/time

The date and time function are driven by a built-

Make sure to check the time before recording
because the built-in clock is not very accurate.
ª
Recharging the built-in lithium battery
≥
If [

] or [--] appears when the Camcorder is
turned on, then the built-in lithium battery has
run down. Use the steps below to charge the
battery. When turning on the power for the first
time after charging, [SET DATE AND TIME] will
appear. Select [YES] and set the date and time.
Connect the AC adaptor to the Camcorder or
attach the battery to the Camcorder, and the
built-in lithium battery will be recharged. Leave
the Camcorder as is for approx. 24 hours, and
the battery will drive the date and time for
approx. 6 months. (Even if the [OFF/ON] switch
is set to [OFF], the battery is still being
recharged.)
