REFRESH:

Charging a battery with some charge remaining reduces that battery’s capacity. Perform the procedure
below to fully discharge the battery pack before recharging.
1. Perform steps 1 through 3 of “CHARGING THE BATTERY PACK”.
2. Press REFRESH on the camcorder for over 2 seconds. The REFRESH lamp on the camcorder blinks to

indicate discharging has started.

3. When discharging is finished, charging automatically starts and the CHARGE lamp blinks.
When you are not using a battery pack for a long period of time, be sure to fully discharge it before storing
because leaving a battery with some charge left over also reduces performance.
