Additional Information

Charging the built-in rechargeable battery

Your camcorder has a built-in rechargeable battery so that the date, time and other
settings are retained even when the POWER switch is set to OFF (CHG). The built-in
rechargeable battery is always charged as long as you are using your camcorder. The
battery, however, will get discharged gradually if you do not use your camcorder. It
will be completely discharged in about three months if you do not use your
camcorder at all. Even if the built-in rechargeable battery is not charged, it will not
affect your camcorder operation. To retain the date and time, etc., charge the battery if
the battery is discharged.
