Built-in Clock’s Rechargeable Lithium Battery
To store the date/time in memory, the clock’s
rechargeable lithium battery is integrated in the
camcorder. While the camcorder is connected to an
AC outlet using the AC Power Adapter/Charger, or
while the battery pack attached to the camcorder
continues to supply power, the clock’s rechargeable
lithium battery is always charged. However, if the
camcorder is not used for approx. 3 months, the
clock’s lithium battery will become discharged and
the date/time stored in memory will be lost. When
this occurs, first connect the camcorder to an AC
outlet using the AC Power Adapter/Charger for over
24 hours to charge the clock’s rechargeable lithium
battery. Then perform the date/time setting before
using the camcorder.
Note that the camcorder can be used without setting
the date/time.
NOTE:
Even if you select “CLOCK ADJ.”, if the parameter is
not highlighted, the camcorder’s internal clock
continues to operate. Once you move the highlight
bar to the first date/time parameter (day), the clock
stops. When you finish setting the minute and press
SET/SELECT, the date and time begin operation from
the date and time you have just set.
