Troubleshooting/Cautions

Battery Pack
Troubleshooting
The supplied battery pack is a lithium-ion battery. Before using the supplied battery pack or an optional battery pack, be sure to read the following cautions:
Terminals
To avoid hazards
...
do not burn. do not short-circuit the terminals. Keep it away
from metallic objects when not in use. When transporting, make sure the provided battery cap is attached to the battery. If the battery cap is misplaced, carry the battery in a plastic bag.
do not modify or disassemble. do not expose the battery to temperatures
exceeding 60°C (140°F), as this may cause the battery to overheat, explode or catch fire. use only specified chargers.
...
... ...
...
... ...
...
...
...
...
To prevent damage and prolong service life
do not subject to unnecessary shock. charge within the temperature range of 10°C to 35°C (50°F to 95°F). Cooler temperatures require longer charging time, or in some cases stop charging at all. Warmer temperatures prevent complete charging, or in some cases stop charging at all. store in a cool, dry place. Extended exposure to high temperatures will increase natural discharge and shorten service life.
keep a 30% battery level (X) if the battery pack is not to be used for a long period of time. In addition, fully charge and then fully discharge the battery pack every 6 months, then continue to store it at a 30% battery level (
X).
remove from charger or powered unit when not in use, as some machines use current even when switched off. do not drop or subject to strong impact.
While the LCD monitor screen has more than
99.99% effective pixels, 0.01% of the pixels may be bright spots (red, blue, green) or dark spots. This is not a malfunction. The spots will not be recorded.
ATTENTION:
The product you have purchased is powered by a rechargeable battery that is recyclable. Please call 1-800-8-BATTERY for information on how to recycle this battery. (USA and Canada only)
Recording Medium
Be sure to follow the guidelines below to prevent corruption or damage to your recorded data.
