Precautions regarding the Lithium battery

1. The lithium battery maintains the clock function and user settings; even if the battery pack or AC adapter is removed.

2. The lithium battery for the camcorder lasts about  6 months under normal operation from time of installation.

3. When the lithium battery becomes weak or dead, the date/time indicator will flash for about five seconds when you set the

power switch to CAMERA.

In this case, replace the lithium battery with a new one(type CR2025 ).

4. Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced.

Replace only with the same or equivalent type.

Warning: Keep the LITHIUM BATTERY out of reach of children. Should a battery be swallowed, consult a doctor

immediately.
