About the battery
Battery Properties
A lithium-ion battery is small-sized and has a high capacity. Low ambient temperature
(below 50º F/10º C) may shorten its life-span and affect its function. Before recording in low
temperatures, put the battery into your pocket to warm it, then install it in the camcorder.
