Inserting and Removing the
Battery Pack
Inserting the Battery Pack
1
Slide the battery compartment door
release on the bottom of the
camcorder in the direction of the
arrow (Q), to open the battery
compartment door (W).
2
Insert the battery pack into the
compartment (Q), as shown, and
push it in completely (W).
Caution:
• Do not force the battery pack into the
battery compartment if it does not go in
easily.
3 Close the door. Be sure to push firmly
until it clicks.
Removing the Battery Pack
Perform step 1 above. Then, with the
camcorder facing down, press the lock as
shown (Q), and remove the battery pack
(W).
Cautions:
• BEFORE REMOVING THE BATTERY PACK,
ALWAYS STOP THE TAPE AND TURN THE
POWER OFF. If you remove the battery pack
during recording or playback, the tape will
remain wound around the video head drum and
may be damaged. Should the power source
(battery or adapter) become disconnected
during operation, reconnect it again immediately.
• Do not expose the battery compartment door to
strong force, as it may come off.
• Be sure to close the battery compartment door
firmly, especially during operations. If you do not,
the battery pack may come off or camcorder
operation may fail because of the poor contact
pressure.
• Remove the battery pack from the camcorder or
disconnect the camcorder from the AC adapter if
the camcorder will not be used for a long time.
• When removing the battery pack, do not tilt the
camcorder so that the battery compartment
faces down. The battery pack may fall out.
Battery Pack Handling
• Make sure that you take enough battery
packs with you to provide two to three
times your estimated recording time.
• Recording time will be reduced in cold
weather.
• The battery will drain in Recording
Standby mode. Turn off the power if you
will not be recording again soon.
