EN47
....charge in an environment where temperatures are
within the tolerances shown in the chart below.
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 naturaldischarge
and shorten service life.
....avoid prolonged uncharged storage.
....remove from charger or powered unit when not in
use, as some machines use current even when
switched off.
NOTES:
●
It is normal for the battery pack to be warm after
charging, or after use.
Temperature Range Specifications
Charging................ 10°C to 35°C (50°F to 95°F)
Operation.............. 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F)
Storage.................. –10°C to 30°C (14°F to 86°F)
●
Recharging time is based on room temperature of 20°C
(68°F.)
●
The lower the temperature, the longer recharging
takes.
CassettesTo properly use and store your cassettes, be sure to read
the following cautions:
1.During use . . .
....make sure the cassette bears the VHS-C mark.
....be aware that recording onto prerecorded tapes
automatically erases the previously recorded
video and audio signals.
....make sure the cassette is positioned properly
when inserting.
....do not load and unload the cassette
repeatedly without allowing the tape to run at all.
This slackens the tape and can result in damage.
....do not open the front tape cover. This exposes the
tape to fingerprints and dust.
2.Store cassettes . . .
....away from heaters or other heat sources.
....out of direct sunlight.
....where they won’t be subject to unnecessary shock
or vibration.
....where they won’t be exposed to strong magnetic
fields (such as those generated by motors,
transformers or magnets).
....vertically, in their original cases.

camcorder is not in use.
2.Avoid using the unit . . .
....in places subject to excessive humidity or dust.
....in places subject to soot or steam such as near a
cooking stove.
....in places subject to excessive shock or vibration.
....near a television set.
....near appliances generating strong magnetic or
electric fields (speakers, broadcasting antennas,
etc.).
....in places subject to extremely high (over 40°C or
104°F) or extremely low (under 0°C or 32°F)
temperatures.
3.DO NOT leave the unit . . .
....in places of over 50°C (122°F).
....in places where humidity is extremely low. (below
35%) or extremely high (above 80%).
....in direct sunlight.

....near a heater.
4.To protect the unit, DO NOT . . .
....allow it to become wet.
....drop the unit or strike it against hard objects.
....subject it to shock or excessive vibration during
transportation.
