$Make sure to check the time before recording because the built-in clock is not very accurate.

%Recharging the built-in lithium battery $If ['] or [--] is indicated when the camera is

turned on, then the built-in lithium battery runs down. Connect the AC adaptor to the camera or place the battery on the camera, and the built-in lithium battery will be recharged. Leave the camera as is for approx. 24 hours, and the battery will drive the date and time for approx.
