The battery 
Before using the battery, fully charge it with the AC 
adapter.
Keep a spare battery with you.
1
Align the battery with the “ 
 ” marking on the 
AC adapter, place it flat, and slide it in the 
direction shown below.
• You cannot charge the battery if the DC cord 
is connected to the DC OUT connector, so 
disconnect it first.
2
Plug the AC cord into the power outlet.
• The POWER lamp and CHARGE lamp on the 
AC adapter light, and charging begins.
• If the CHARGE lamp does not light when 
attached, detach the battery and then attach 
it again.
3
When the battery is charged, the CHARGE 
lamp on the AC adapter goes out.
4
Slide the battery and remove it.
Recording time of included battery 
• Times given above are approximate. Figures in 
parentheses show the recording times when you use 
the LCD monitor.
• The times apply when the ambient operating 
temperature is 68°F (20°C) and humidity is 60%. 
Charging may take longer at other temperatures and 
humidity levels.

Approx. 330 min.
Approx. 360 (or 300) min.
• Keep metal objects (such as necklaces 
and hairpins) away from the battery. Short-
circuiting may occur across the terminals, 
causing the battery to heat up, and you 
may seriously burn yourself if you touch 
the battery in this state.
• The battery becomes hot while it is being used or 
charged. 
The camera-recorder itself also becomes hot 
during use.
• The recordable time reduces if you repeatedly 
start and stop recording.
• Discharge the battery before storing it. 
When storing it for an extended time, charge it at 
least once a year, use up its charge in the 
camera-recorder, and then store it again.
• If the battery is extremely hot or cold, the 
CHARGE lamp will blink several times before 
charging starts.
• If the CHARGE lamp continues to blink even 
when the battery temperature is normal, there 
may be something wrong with the battery or AC 
adapter. Contact your dealer.
• The battery takes longer to charge when it is 
warm.
• The AC adapter can interfere with radio reception 
so keep radios at least 1 meter away from it.
• The AC adapter may make some noise when you 
are using it, but this is normal.
• You cannot charge the battery when supplying 
power to the camera-recorder from the AC 
adapter.
