On charging the pre-installed rechargeable battery

Your camcorder has a pre-installed

rechargeable battery to retain the date,

time, and other settings even when the

LCD screen is closed. The pre-installed

rechargeable battery is always charged

while your camcorder is connected to the

wall outlet (wall socket) via the AC 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. Charge the pre-installed

rechargeable battery before you start using

your camcorder.
