Powering Your Camcorder

Rechargeable Battery

The battery must be charged before it can be used the first time. Initial charging will take approximately one hour. When fully charged, the battery should supply about 45-65 minutes of operating time (depending on how much you use zoom and pause, auto focus, and record pause).

Place ON/POWER SAVE in POWER SAVE during recording breaks to conserve power. Place it back in ON when you are ready to resume recording.

Refresh and Charge the Battery

The nickel cadmium battery will provide longer operation time if it is refreshed (completely discharged) before every charging. Refreshing a battery will take approximately 3-1/2 hours.

Use the small marker switch on the top of the battery to help you remember to recharge the battery. It has no other function.
