attempts, the indicator continues to
flash, your battery cannot take a charge
and must be replaced.
• Throwing the battery into a fire or
exposing the battery to excessive heat -
over 149°F (65*C) could be hazardous.
• Do not attempt to disassemble or
modify the battery. There are no user-
serviceable parts inside.
• Use the battery only with specified AC
adapter/chargers and camcorders.
• If leakage from a damaged battery
contacts your skin or clothing, wash it
off immediately with running water.
Do not short the battery's terminals.
Allow the battery to cool down before
attaching it to the adapter/charger.

Battery Care and Storage
• Discharge the battery when not in
use to provide better service and
longer performance.
• The battery should be charged at a
temperature of 32°F -104*F (0°C -
40°C) to prevent damage.
• Do not operate the battery at
temperatures below 14*F (-10*C) or
above 113°F (45*C). The battery
might be damaged if operated at
temperatures above 122°F (50°C).
Operation time will decrease at
extremely low temperatures.
• After repeated chargings and use the
operation time will decrease. When
the operation time becomes too
short to be useful, it is time to
replace the battery.
• Store the battery at normal room
temperature. High temperatures
will damage the battery.
• Discharge the battery before storage
and charge it before use.
