Charging and discharging is not possible if the wrong type of battery is used.

When charging the battery pack for the first time or*after a long storage period, the CHARGE lamp may not light. Remove the battery pack from

the camcorder, then try charging again.

If a fully-charged battery’s operation time remains extremely short, the battery is worn out. Please purchase a new one.
