Notes:
• Charge the battery pack between 50°F and
86°F (10°C and 30°C). The battery pack may
not charge properly at temperatures too low
or too high.
• The battery pack and charger become warm
during charging. This is not a malfunction.
• Using the zoom (see page 17) and other
functions or turning the power on and off
frequently will increase power consumption.
This may result in a decrease in the actual
recording time compared to the maximum
continuous recording time listed above.
• The charging time and recording time may
vary depending on the ambient temperature
and the condition of the battery pack.
• See page 53 for more information on using the
battery pack.
Caution:
• Charge only SHARP model BT-L225 or BT-L445
battery packs. Other types of battery packs may
burst, causing personal injury and damage.
Extending battery pack life

capacity of the battery pack will naturally
deteriorate over time. To limit the deterioration
of the capacity, it is recommended to perform
the following procedure at least once every six
months:
Fully charge the battery pack.
21Attach the battery pack to the camcorder,
and set the Power switch to CAMERA
without inserting a cassette. Allow the
battery power to fully discharge by leaving
it on the camcorder until the camcorder
power automatically turns off.
sl Remove the battery pack and store it
between 50°F and 68°F (10°C and 20°C).
