About Batteries
DANGER! Do not attempt to take the batteries apart, or
expose them to flame or excessive heat, as it may
cause a fire or explosion.
WARNING! Do not allow the battery or its terminals to
come in contact with metals, as this can result in a
short circuit and possibly start a fire.
The Benefits Of Lithium-Ion Batteries
Lithium-ion battery packs are small but have a large
power capacity. However, when one is exposed to cold
temperatures (below 10°C), its usage time becomes
shorter and it may cease to function. If this happens,
place the battery pack in your pocket or other warm,
protected place for a short time, then re-attach it to the
camcorder. As long as the battery pack itself is not
cold, it should not affect performance.
(If you’re using a heating pad, make sure the battery
pack does not come in direct contact with it.)
● Since the AC Adapter processes electricity internally,
it becomes warm during use. Be sure to use it only in
well-ventilated areas.
● The following operation stops charging:
• Set the Power Switch y to “PLAY”, “ ” or “ ”.
• Disconnect the AC Adapter from the camcorder.
• Unplug the AC Adapter from the AC outlet.
• Detach the battery from the camcorder.
● This camcorder will be automatically turned off if its power
is supplied from the AC adapter and about 5 minutes pass
since it has entered into the recording standby mode with
a cassette inserted. If, under those conditions, the battery
is attached to the camcorder, its charging will start.
● Using the optional AA-V40EK AC Power Adapter/
Charger, you can charge the BN-V408U/V416U/V428U
battery pack without the camcorder. However, it cannot
be used as an AC adapter.
● To avoid interference with reception, do not use the AC
Adapter near a radio.
● Perform charging where the temperature is between 10°C
and 35°C. 20°C to 25°C is the ideal temperature range for
charging. If the environment is too cold, charging may be
incomplete.
● Charging time varies according to the ambient
temperature and the status of the battery pack.
