On charging the built-in rechargeable battery

Your camcorder has a built-in rechargeable battery to retain the date, time, and other settings even when the power is off. The built-in rechargeable battery is always charged while your camcorder is connected to the wall outlet via the AC power adaptor or while the battery pack is attached.

The rechargeable battery will be fully discharged in about 3 months if you do not use your camcorder at all. Use your camcorder after charging the built-in rechargeable battery. If the built-in rechargeable battery is not charged,

any data that you have input will not be backed up and the date/time appears on the screen as "12:00 AM JAN. 1.2008" (when "Date/Time" display is set to "On").

The date/time will read "12:00 AM JAN. 1.2008" in the following conditions:

-When the built-in rechargeable battery becomes weak or dead.

-If the movie or photo recording was made before setting the date/time in the miniDV camcorder.

The DATE/TIME button exists on the remote control as well. (SC-D382/D385 only) Press it once to display the date "JAN. 1.2008", press it twice to display the time and press it again to display both time and date on the screen.
