Charging the Battery Pack
The battery pack will be charged only when the camcorder
is
off.
When the camcorder charges
an
exhausted battery pack for the first 20
minutes,
it
can be used for 3 times longer than
it
was charged.
In
other
words, you can record with the camcorder for 60 minutes after a 20-minute
charge.
If
remaining battery time
is
an
issue, you can power the camcorder using
the compact power adapter so the battery pack will not be consumed.
Charged battery packs continue to discharge naturally. Therefore, charge
them on the day of use, or the day before, to ensure a full charge.
We recommend that you prepare battery packs to last 2 to 3 times longer
than you think you might need.
