We recommend charging the battery pack in temperatures between 50 °F and 86 °F (10 °C and 30 °C). Outside the temperature range of 32 °F to 104 °F (0 °C to 40 °C), the CHARGE indicator flashes rapidly and charging stops.

A lithium ion battery pack can be charged at any charge state. Unlike conventional battery packs, you do not need to completely use or discharge it before charging.

To conserve battery power, turn off the camcorder instead of leaving it in record pause mode.

We recommend that you prepare battery packs 2 to 3 times longer than you think you might need.
