Precautions and Safety Instructions

Precautions regarding the battery pack

Make sure that the battery pack is charged before shooting outdoors.

To preserve battery power, keep your camcorder turned off when you are not operating it.

When your camcorder is in CAMERA mode, if it is left in STANDBY for more than 5 minutes without operation, it will automatically turn off to protect against un-necessery battery discharge.

It is a good idea to use the viewfinder instead of the LCD when shooting for a long time because the LCD uses more battery.

Make sure that the battery pack is fitted firmly into place. Dropping the battery pack might damage it.

When the battery reaches the end of its life please contact your local dealer. The batteries have to be dealt with as chemical waste.

The lithium battery maintains the clock function, TITLE, CUSTOM function and preset contents memory; even if the battery pack or AC power adapter is removed.
