Regarding Built-in Clock’s Rechargeable Lithium

Date/Time Menu

Battery

To store the date/time in memory, a clock’s rechargeable

 

 

lithium battery is integrated in the camcorder. While the

 

camcorder is connected to an AC outlet using the AC

 

Power Adapter/Charger, or while the battery pack attached

 

to the camcorder continues to supply power to the

 

camcorder, the clock’s rechargeable lithium battery is

 

always charged. However, if the camcorder is not used for

 

approx. 3 months, the clock lithium battery will become

 

discharged and the date/time stored in memory will be

 

lost. When this occurs, first connect the camcorder to an

 

AC outlet using the AC Power Adapter/Charger etc. for

 

over 24 hours to charge the clock’s rechargeable lithium

 

battery. Then perform the date/time setting before using the

 

camcorder.

 

It is also possible to use the camcorder without the date/

 

time setting.

NOTE:

Even if you select “DATE/TIME”, if the parameter is not highlighted the camcorder's internal clock continues to operate. Once you move the highlight bar to the first date/ time parameter (day), the clock stops. When you finish setting the minute and press the Select Dial, the date and time begin operation from the date and time you just set.
