• Before changing the battery pack, Turn the 
POWER switch to OFF (CHG) and turn off the 
 (Movie) lamp/
 (Still) lamp (p. 23).
• The CHG (charge) lamp flashes during

correctly displayed under the following 
conditions:
– The battery pack is not attached correctly.
– The battery pack is damaged.
– The battery pack is worn-out (For Battery 
Info only).
• The power will not be supplied from the battery 
as long as the AC Adaptor is connected to the 
DC IN jack of your camcorder, even when the 
mains lead is disconnected from the wall socket.

recommended that you use an NP-FH70/NP-
FH100 battery pack.

which only allows short recording and playback 
times, with your camcorder.
