• We recommend charging the battery pack in temperatures between 10^o C and 30^o C (50^o F and 86^o F). Outside the temperature range of 0^o C to 40^o C (32^o F to 104^o F), the charging will not start.
• Do not connect to the camcorder's DC IN terminal or to the compact power adapter any electrical equipment that is not expressly recommended for use with this camcorder.
• To prevent equipment breakdowns and excessive heating, do not connect the supplied compact power adapter to voltage converters for overseas travels or special power sources such as those on aircraft and ships, DC-AC inverters, etc.

• The CHARGE indicator also serves as a rough estimate of the battery charge status.
  - Continuously on: Battery fully charged.
  - Flashes approx. twice per second: Battery over 50% charged.
  - Flashes approx. once per second: Battery less than 50% charged.
• The charging time will vary depending on the surrounding temperature and the battery pack's initial charge condition. In cold places, the effective usage time of the battery will decrease.
• We recommend that you prepare battery packs 2 to 3 times longer than you think you might need.
