2.Getting Started

2.1Loading the Battery

Before using the camera, users must load the Lithium-ion rechargeable battery included within the package.

1.Insert the battery according to the correct polarity marks ( + or -).

2.Close the battery cover firmly.

Note

If the camcorder does not power up, make sure that it is orientated properly.

2.2 Charge your battery

It is recommended that the AC adaptor and USB cable included with the camcorder be used for the initial charge.

The camera must be turned OFF; blinking light confirms charging, and the light becomes constant when the charging has been completed.

In AC charging Mode, the light will turn itself off automatically after 3~5 minutes . The full charge time is about 4 to 5 hours. (Actual charging time may vary depending on the condition of the battery.)

2.3 Inserting and Removing an SD Card

Although the camera comes with internal memory which allows a limited number of photos and video to be recorded, it is strongly recommended that you expand the capacity by using SD/SDHC memory cards.

1.Insert the memory card into the slot. Please refer to the figure on the right side.

2.To remove an installed SD card, press the card inwards to release it.

3.When the card pops out, gently remove it from its slot.

4.Recommended memory capacity: 1GB or above.

Note

•When a memory card is installed, videos/photos are saved on the card rather than on the built-in memory.

•Protecting Data on an SD Card: SD Card is read-only when it is locked. No photos or videos can be recorded when the SD card is locked. Make sure the lock is on the writeable position before recording any media.
