Internal rechargeable battery
Your camcorder includes a internal rechargeable battery that
retains the date and time settings even after the power is turned
off.
If the battery is depleted, the current date/time values are reset to
the default values. If this occurs, you need to recharge the internal
rechargeable battery (see below), and then re-set the current date
and time.
Charging the internal rechargeable battery
The internal battery is always recharged while your camcorder is
connected to the AC power or while the battery is attached.
If you have not used the camcorder for about 2 weeks and you
have not connected the AC power or the battery to it, the internal
battery fully discharges. If this occurs, charge the internal battery
by connecting the camcorder to the supplied AC adaptor for 24
hours.
