Last Updated : 28-Dec-2010
Issue Number : 8201018200

Solution

The charging times given in the following table are approximate and vary according to charging conditions and initial charge of the battery pack.

Charging conditions	Charging time
Using the camcorder	150 min.
Using the CG-110(CG-110E) Battery Charger	115 min.

REFERENCE

When the camcorder is off, press <BATT. INFO> to display the charge status of a battery pack. The Intelligent System will display the charge status (as a percentage) and the remaining recording time (in minutes) for 5 seconds. If the battery pack is exhausted, the battery information may not be displayed.

NOTE

When you use battery packs bearing the Intelligent System mark, the camcorder will communicate with the battery and display the remaining usage time (accurate to 1 minute). You can only use and charge these battery packs with camcorders and chargers compatible with Intelligent System.

CAUTION

The battery pack will be charged only when the camcorder is off.
We recommend charging the battery pack in temperatures between 10 deg C and 30 deg C (50 deg F and 86 deg F). Outside the temperature range of approximately 0 deg C to 40 deg C (32 deg F to 104 deg F), charging will not start. Also, when the battery itself is outside the temperature range of approximately 0 deg C to 40 deg C (32 deg F to 104 deg F), charging will not start.
During charging, if you disconnect the compact power adapter from the DC IN terminal or unplug it from the power outlet, make sure the ON/OFF (CHG) indicator has gone out before connecting or plugging the compact power adapter again.
Charged battery packs continue to discharge naturally. Therefore, charge them on the day of use, or the day before, to ensure a full charge.
