Setup

≥The batteries heat up after use or charging. This unit will also heat up while being used. This is not a malfunction.

≥Be aware that the operating time of the battery will become shorter in low temperatures. We recommend charging a spare battery for use when recording.

ªAbout the remaining battery

will become red. If the battery discharges, then will flash.

≥The remaining battery capacity may not be displayed correctly where the temperature is low or high or if the battery was not used for a long period of time.

To correctly display the remaining battery capacity, recharge the battery, discharge it and then charge it again. (Even if this operation is performed, it may not be possible to display the remaining battery capacity correctly if the battery was used for a long period of time where the temperature is low or high or if the battery was repeatedly charged.)

≥The maximum amount of remaining battery capacity able to be indicated is 240 minutes. If the actual remaining time exceeds

240 minutes, the indication will stay green and will not change until the remaining time falls below 240 minutes.

≥Depending on the conditions of use, the time displayed on the remaining battery capacity indication will change so use it as an approximation.

≥When turning the mode dial to switch modes, the time indication will turn off in order to recalculate the remaining battery capacity time.

≥When using batteries made by other companies the remaining battery capacity will not be shown.
