What is an “InfoLITHIUM” battery pack?
An “InfoLITHIUM” battery pack is a
lithium-ion battery pack that has functions
for communicating information related to
operating conditions between your camcorder
and an AC Adaptor/charger (sold separately).
The “InfoLITHIUM” battery pack calculates the
power consumption according to the operating
conditions of your camcorder, and displays the
remaining battery time in minutes.

start using your camcorder.
We recommend charging the battery pack in an
ambient temperature of between 10  C to 30  C
(50 ˚F to 86 ˚F) until the /CHG (flash/charge)
lamp turns off. If you charge the battery pack
outside of this temperature range, you may not

pack becomes shorter. In that case, do one
of the following to use the battery pack for a
longer time.
