The times given above are approximate for when
scenes are shot in the DVCPRO HD mode while
not using the LCD monitor.
The times apply when the ambient operating
temperature is 68°F (20°C) and humidity is 60%.
Charging may take longer at other temperatures
and humidity levels.
Keep metal objects (such as necklaces
and hairpins) away from the battery.
Shortcircuiting may occur across the
terminals, causing the battery to heat up,
and you may seriously burn yourself if you
touch the battery in this state.
The battery becomes hot while it is being
used or charged. The camera-recorder itself
also becomes hot during use.
The recordable time reduces if you repeatedly
start and stop recording.
Discharge the battery before storing it. When
storing it for an extended time, charge it at
least once a year, use up its charge in the
camerarecorder, and then store it again.
If the battery is extremely hot or cold, the
CHARGE lamp will blink several times before
charging starts.
If the CHARGE lamp continues to blink even
when the battery temperature is normal, there
may be something wrong with the battery or
AC adapter. Contact your dealer.
The battery takes longer to charge when it is
warm.
The AC adapter can interfere with radio
reception so keep radios at least 1 meter
away from it.
The AC adapter may make some noise when
you are using it, but this is normal.
You cannot charge the battery when
supplying power to the camera-recorder from
the AC adapter.
Operation of battery pack CGR-D16 (1600
mAh) (sold separately) is not guaranteed.
