About the running time

Times measured when using the camcorder at 25˚C (77˚F). As the environmental temperature and conditions vary, the actual battery time may differ form the approximate times given in the table.

The recording and playback time will be shorter depending on the conditions under which you use your camcorder. In actual recording, the battery pack may discharge 2-3 times faster than this reference, since the Record start/stop and Zoom are being operated, and playback is performed. Assume that the recordable time with a fully charged battery pack is between 1/2 and 1/3 of the time in the table, so have enough battery packs to allow for the time you are planning to record on the camcorder.

The recording and playback time will be shorter when you use your camcorder in low temperatures.

On the battery pack

The CHG (charging) lamp blinks during charging, or Battery Info will not be correctly displayed under the following conditions:

-The battery pack is not inserted correctly.

-The battery pack is damaged.

-The battery pack is worn-out. (For the battery information only)

Using an AC power source

It is recommended that you use the AC power adaptor to power the camcorder from a household AC outlet when you perform settings on it, play back, or edit images, or use it indoors. Make the same connections as you do when charging the battery pack.

On the AC Adaptor

Use a nearby wall outlet when using the AC Adaptor. Disconnect the AC Adaptor from the wall outlet immediately if any malfunction occurs while using your camcorder.

Do not use the AC Adaptor placed in a narrow space, such as between a wall and furniture.

Do not short-circuit the DC plug of the AC Adaptor or battery terminals with any metallic objects. This may cause a malfunction.

Even if your camcorder is turned off, AC power is still supplied to it while connected to the wall outlet via the AC Adaptor.
