Notes:

Charge the battery pack between 10°C and 30°C. The battery pack may not charge properly at temperatures too low or too high.

The battery pack and charger become warm during charging. This is not a malfunction.

Using the zoom (see page 21) and other functions or turning the power on and off frequently will increase power consumption. This may result in a decrease in the actual recording time compared to the maximum continuous recording time listed above.

The charging time and recording time may vary depending on the ambient temperature and the condition of the battery pack.

The maximum recording and playback time will increase somewhat when you leave the battery on the charger for 1 hour extra after the CHARGE indicator turns off.

See page 90 for more information on using the battery pack.

Caution:

Charge only SHARP model BT-L225 or BT-L445 battery packs. Other types of battery packs may burst, causing personal injury and damage.
