• On charging the built-in rechargeable battery
Your camcorder has a built-in rechargeable battery to retain the
date, time, and other settings even when the power is off. The built-
in rechargeable battery is always charged while your camcorder is
connected to the wall outlet via the AC power adaptor or while the
battery pack is attached. The rechargeable battery will be fully discharged
in about 6 months if you do not use your camcorder at all. Use your
camcorder after charging the built-in rechargeable battery. If the built-in
rechargeable battery is not charged, any input data will not be backed up
and the date/time appears on the screen as “JAN/01/2007 12:00 AM”
(when “Date/Time” display is set to On).
• You can set the year up to 2037.
