User’s Manual 10 EN
SETUP
CAUTION Do not charge the battery pack immediately after the camcorder has been in continuous use for a long time
i The battery pack becomes hot when the camcorder is used continuously
for a long time. If you attempt to charge the battery pack in this state, the multi-indicator may flash orange and it may not be possible to charge the battery pack. Wait until the battery pack has cooled down before attempting to charge it.
Does the battery pack appear swollen?
i The lithium-ion battery used in this camcorder may expand slightly when
stored in a hot environment or repeatedly used, but this is not a safety hazard. However, a battery that is difficult to insert because it has become swollen may then be impossible to extract from the battery compartment. In this case, please discontinue its use and replace it with a new battery.
Do not use the battery with the outer covering or label removed
i Doing so may result in malfunction.
HINT About the internal backup battery
i This camcorder’s internal battery serves to maintain the date and time
settings, as well as the shooting settings. The backup battery will be fully charged when the battery pack is kept in the camcorder continuously for about 2 days. In the fully charged state, the backup battery will maintain the camcorder settings for about 7 days.
When not using the camcorder for a long time, remove the battery pack
i A small amount of power is still used even if the camcorder is turned off,
and it is therefore recommended that the battery pack be removed from the camcorder if it is not going to be used for a long time. Note that when the battery pack is removed for a long period, the time and date settings may be cleared. Before using your camcorder again, be sure to confirm that the camcorder settings are correct.
Recharging when connected to the USB terminal
i The battery can be recharged while the camcorder is connected to a
computer.
i Note, however, that the time it takes to recharge will differ depending on
the camcorder’s operating condition.
i Connect the dedicated USB interface cable to the USB connector on your
computer. Do not connect it to the USB connector on the monitor or the keyboard, or to the USB hub.
i If the camcorder is not going to be used for an extended period of time,
please disconnect the dedicated USB interface cable from the camcorder.
EN 11 User’s Manual

About recharging

Recharging takes place only when the camcorder is turned off, or when the power save function or the sleep function has been activated. Recharging does not take place when the camcorder is in the recording mode or playback mode.

About the temperature alert icon \

During camcorder use, if the temperature of the battery or inside the camcorder (excluding the battery) rises, a temperature alert icon \ will appear as described below.
k When the battery or internal camcorder (excluding battery)
temperature rises during use
h During camcorder use, if the temperature of the battery or inside the
camcorder (excluding the battery) rises, a \ icon lights on the monitor. It is still possible to record and play back even when the \ icon is lit; however it is advised that you discontinue use as soon as possible and turn the camcorder off.
h If the temperature rises further, the \ icon will start to flash, and the
camcorder will turn off automatically. The camcorder cannot be turned on until the temperature has dropped (or as long as the \ icon remains flashing). Please wait until the temperature has dropped before resuming use.
h During video recording, a countdown indicator will show the time
starting about 15 seconds before shutdown. When the indicator shows 0 seconds, recording stops.
h If the camcorder is turned off while the temperature is high (that is, while
the \ icon is flashing), it cannot be turned on again until the temperature has dropped (or as long as the \ icon remains flashing).
