... do not
... do not modify or disassemble.
... do not expose the battery to temperatures exceeding 60°C, as this may cause the battery to overheat, explode or catch fire.
... use only specified chargers.
●To prevent damage and prolong service life
... do not subject to unnecessary shock.
... charge in an environment where temperatures are within the tolerances shown in “Temperature range specifications” ( pg. 67). This is a chemical reaction type battery — cooler temperatures impede chemical reaction, while warmer temperatures can prevent complete charging.
... store in a cool, dry place. Extended exposure to high temperatures will increase natural discharge and shorten service life.
... fully charge and then fully discharge the battery every 6 months when storing the battery pack over a long period time.
... remove from charger or powered unit when not in use, as some machines use current even when switched off.
NOTES:
●It is recommended that only genuine JVC batteries are used in this camera. Using generic
●It is normal for the battery pack to be warm after charging, or after use.

DANGER! Do not attempt to take the batteries apart, or expose them to flame or excessive heat, as it may cause a fire or explosion.
WARNING! Do not allow the battery or its terminals to come in contact with metals, as this can result in a short circuit and possibly start a fire.
To resume the original function of the accurate battery power indication
If the battery power indication differs from the actual operating time, fully charge the battery, and then run it down. However this function may not work properly if the battery was used for a long period of time under extremely high/low temperature condition or charged too many times.
