SB-L220 Notas
The battery pack should be recharged in an environment of between 32F (0C) and 104F (40C). The battery pack should never be charged in a room temperature that is below 32F (0C). The life and capacity of the battery pack will be reduced if it is used in temperatures below 32F (0C) or left in temperatures above 104F (40C) for a long period, even when it is fully recharged. Do not put the battery pack near any heat source (fire or flames, for example). Do not disassemble, process, pressure, or heat the Battery Pack. Do not allow the + and - terminals of the battery pack to be short-circuited. It may cause leakage, heat generation, induce fire and overheating.
La batera debe recargarse a una temperatura ambiente de entre 0C (32F) y 40C (104F). La batera nunca debe cargarse cuando la temperatura ambiente es de menos de 0C (32F). La vida til y la capacidad de la batera se vern reducidas si se utiliza en ambientes con temperaturas inferiores a 0C (32F) o si se deja durante largos periodos expuesta a temperaturas superiores a los 40C (104F), incluso si est cargada por completo. No ponga la batera cerca de una fuente de calor (chimeneas, radiadores, etc). No desmonte la batera ni la someta a manipulaciones, presiones ni al calor. No permita que se produzca un cortocircuito entre los polos + y de la batera. Podran producirse prdidas o recalentamiento, lo cual podra ocasionar un incendio. 25

Battery level display The battery level display indicates the amount of power remaining in the battery pack.
Indicador de carga de la batera El indicador de carga de la batera muestra la cantidad de energa que queda en sta.
a. Fully charged b. 20~40% used c. 40~80% used d. 80~95% used e. Completely used (flickers) (The camcorder will turn off soon, change the battery as soon as possible) Please refer to the table on page 25 for approximate continuous recording times. The recording time is affected by environmental temperature and conditions. The recording time becomes very short in a cold environment. The continuous recording times in the operating instructions are measured using a fully charged battery pack at 77F(25C). As the environmental temperature and conditions may differ when you actually use the camcorder, the remaining battery time may not be the same as the approximate continuous recording times given in these instructions. Tips for Battery Identification A charge mark is provided on the battery pack to help you remember whether it has been charged or not. Two colours are provided (red and grey)-you may choose which one indicates charged and which indicates discharged. 26
