About the InfoLITHIUM battery pack
The camcorder operates only with InfoLITHIUM V series battery packs. Other series battery packs are not
available. InfoLITHIUM V series battery packs have the
mark.
What is an InfoLITHIUM battery pack?
An InfoLITHIUM battery pack is a lithium-ion battery pack that has functions for communicating information
related to operating conditions between the camcorder and an AC Adaptor/charger (sold separately).
The InfoLITHIUM battery pack calculates the power consumption according to the operating conditions of
the camcorder , and displays the remaining battery capacity in percent (%).
To charge the battery pack
Be sure to charge the battery pack before you start using the camcorder .
We recommend that you charge the battery pack in an ambient temperature range of 10˚C to 30˚C (50°F to
86°F) until the POWER/CHG (charge) lamp turns off. If you charge the battery pack outside of this
temperature range, you may not be able to charge it efficiently .
The POWER/CHG (charge) lamp flashes during charging under the following conditions.
The battery pack is not attached correctly .
The battery pack is damaged.
The temperature of the battery pack is low .
Remove the battery pack from the camcorder and put it in a warm place.
The temperature of the battery pack is high.
Remove the battery pack from the camcorder and put it in a cool place.
To use the battery pack effectively
Battery pack performance decreases when the ambient temperature is 10˚C (50°F) or below , and the length
of time you can use the battery pack becomes shorter . If that happens, one of the following is recommended
to enable longer use of the battery pack:
Put the battery pack in a pocket to warm it up, and install it on the camcorder immediately before you
start shooting.
Use a large capacity battery pack: NP-FV100A (sold separately).
Frequent use of the LCD monitor or a frequent playback, fast forward or reverse operation wears out the
battery pack faster .
Be sure to close the LCD monitor when not recording or playing back on the camcorder . The battery pack is
also consumed when the camcorder is in recording standby or playback pause.
Have spare battery packs ready for 2 or 3 times the expected recording time, and make trial recordings
before making the actual recording.
Do not expose the battery pack to water . The battery pack is not water resistant.
About the remaining battery power indicator
When the power goes off even though the remaining battery power indicator indicates that the battery pack
has enough power to operate, charge the battery pack fully again. Remaining battery power will be indicated
correctly . Note, however , that the battery indication will not be restored if it is used in high temperatures for a
long time, or if left in a fully charged state, or when the battery pack is frequently used.
Depending on the operating conditions or ambient temperature, the
icon that indicates a low battery
may flash even if there are still about 10% of power remaining.
