On charging the pre-installed

Your camcorder has a pre-installed
rechargeable battery to retain the date,
time, and other settings even when the
LCD screen is closed. The pre-installed
rechargeable battery is always charged
while your camcorder is connected to the

or while the battery pack is attached. The
rechargeable battery will be fully discharged
in about 3 months if you do not use your
camcorder at all. Use your camcorder after
charging the pre-installed rechargeable
battery.
However, even if the pre-installed
rechargeable battery is not charged, the
camcorder operation will not be affected as
long as you are not recording the date.
How to charge the pre-installed
rechargeable battery
Connect your camcorder to a wall outlet
(wall socket) using the supplied AC
Adaptor, and leave it with the LCD screen
closed for more than 24 hours.
