Built-in Rechargeable Lithium Battery
The camcorder has a built-in rechargeable lithium battery to keep the
date/time and other settings. The built-in lithium battery is recharged
while you use the camcorder; however, it will discharge completely if
you do not use the camcorder for about 3 months.
To recharge the built-in lithium battery:
Connect the compact power
adapter to the camcorder and leave it connected for 24 hours with the
camcorder off.
Lithium Button Battery
• Do not pick up the battery using tweezers or other metal tools, as this
will cause a short circuit.
• Wipe the battery with a clean dry cloth to ensure proper contact.
Disposal
When you delete movies or initialize the built-in memory (
only) or
memory card, only the file allocation table is altered and stored data is
not physically erased. Take the necessary precautions when you dis-
pose of the camcorder or memory card, for example by physically
damaging it to prevent the leakage of private data.
