Battery Packs

 

The supplied battery pack is a

Terminals

lithium-ion battery. Before

 

using the supplied battery

 

pack or an optional battery

 

pack, be sure to read the

 

following cautions:

 

To avoid hazards

... do not burn.

... do not short-circuit the

terminals. When transporting, make sure the provided battery cap is attached to the battery. If the battery cap is misplaced, carry the battery in a plastic bag.

... do not modify or disassemble.

... do not expose the battery to temperatures exceeding 60°C (140°F), as this may cause the battery to overheat, explode or catch fire.

... use only specified chargers.

REFERENCES EN 37

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 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 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 non-JVC batteries can cause

 

damage to the internal charging circuitry.

 

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: –20°C to 50°C (–4°F to 122°F)

 

The lower the temperature, the longer recharging takes.

 

Charging times are for a fully discharged battery pack.
