Precautions on camcorder care
Lens and LCD screen/finder (on mounted models only)
The LCD screen and the finder are manufactured using extremely high-precision technology, so over 99.99% of the pixels are operational for effective use. However, there may be some tiny black points and/or bright points (white, red, blue or green in color) that constantly appear on the LCD screen and the finder. These points are normal in the manufacturing process and do not affect the recording in any way. Do not let your camcorder get wet. Keep your camcorder away from rain and sea water. Letting your camcorder get wet may cause your camcorder to malfunction. Sometimes this malfunction cannot be repaired [a]. Never leave your camcorder exposed to temperatures above 60C (140F), such as in a car parked in the sun or under direct sunlight [b]. Be careful when placing the camera near a window or outdoors. Exposing the LCD screen, the finder or the lens to direct sunlight for long periods may cause malfunctions [c]. Do not directly shoot the sun. Doing so might cause your camcorder to malfunction. Take pictures of the sun in low light conditions such as dusk [d].
Step 1 Preparing the power supply
Installing the battery pack
We recommend that you use the battery pack when you use your camcorder outdoors.
(1) Lift up the viewfinder. (2) Slide the battery pack down until it clicks.
To remove the battery pack
(1) Lift up the viewfinder. (2) Slide the battery pack out in the direction of the arrow while pressing BATT down.

If you use the large capacity battery pack If you install the NP-FM70/FM90/FM91 battery pack on your camcorder, extend its viewfinder.
Step 1 Preparing the power supply Charging the battery pack

Use the battery pack after charging it for your camcorder. Your camcorder operates only with the InfoLITHIUM battery pack (M series). See page 166 for details of InfoLITHIUM battery pack.
(1) Open the DC IN jack cover and connect the AC power adaptor supplied with your camcorder to the DC IN jack with the plugs v mark facing up. (2) Connect the power cord to the AC power adaptor. (3) Connect the power cord to the wall outlet. (4) Set the POWER switch to OFF (CHG). Charging begins. The remaining battery time is indicated in minutes on the display window.
When the remaining battery indicator changes to , normal charge is completed. To fully charge the battery (full charge), leave the battery pack attached for about one hour after normal charge is completed until FULL appears in the display window. Fully charging the battery allows you to use the battery longer than usual.
