– In hot or humid locations
– When the lens is exposed to salty air such as
at the seaside.
• Store in a well-ventilated location subject to
little dirt or dust.
• To prevent mold, periodically clean the lens as
described above. It is recommended that you
operate your camcorder about once a month to
keep it in optimum state for a long time.
To charge the pre-installed
rechargeable battery
Your camcorder has a pre-installed
rechargeable battery to retain the date,
time, and other settings even when the
POWER switch is set to OFF (CHG).
The pre-installed rechargeable battery
is always charged while you are using
your camcorder but it will get discharged
gradually if you do not use your camcorder.
The rechargeable battery will be fully
discharged in about 3 months if you do
not use your camcorder at all. However,
even if the pre-installed rechargeable
battery is not charged, the camcorder
operation will not be affected as long as
you are not recording the date.
Procedures
Connect your camcorder to a wall socket
using the supplied AC Adaptor or the
Handycam Station, and leave it with the
POWER switch set to OFF (CHG) for more
than 24 hours.

Commander
While pressing on the tab, inset your

recharge, disassemble or dispose of in fire.
Caution
Danger of explosion if battery is
incorrectly replaced. Replace only with

• A button-type lithium battery (CR2025) is used
in the Remote Commander. Do not use batteries
other than the CR2025.
• When the lithium battery becomes weak, the
operating distance of the Remote Commander
may shorten, or the Remote Commander may
not function properly. In this case, replace the
battery with a Sony CR2025 lithium battery.
Use of another battery may present a risk of fire
or explosion.
