Available running time for the battery pack, Battery Type, BP125A

(Unit: minutes.)

•Charging time: Approximate time (in min.) required to fully charge a completely exhausted battery pack.

•Recording/Playback time: Approximate recording time (in min.) available when you fully charge the battery pack. ‘HD’ stands for high definition image quality, and ‘SD’ stands for standard image quality.

•Recharge the battery pack only where the temperature is between 0°C (32°F) and 40°C (104°F).

•When exposed to cold temperatures (below 0°C (32°F)), the battery's recording time decreases and it may cease to function. If this happens, remove the battery from the camcorder, place the it in your pocket or other warm, protected place for a short time, and then re-insert it.

•Do not put the battery pack near any heat source (i.e. fire or a heater).

•Do not disassemble, apply pressure to, or heat the battery pack.

•Do not allow the battery pack's terminals to be short-circuited. This may cause the battery to leak, generate heat, or cause a fire.

•The recording time is affected by temperature and environmental conditions.

•We recommend using only the battery type that came with your camcorder. This battery type is available from your Samsung retailer. When the battery reaches the end of its life, please contact your local dealer. The batteries must be dealt with as chemical waste.

•Make sure that the battery pack is fully charged before starting to record.

•To preserve battery power, keep your camcorder turned off when you are not operating it.

•Even when the power is switched off, the battery pack still discharges if you leave it in the camcorder. We recommend that you remove the battery pack from the camcorder.

•If the battery is not used for a long time, fully charge the battery and then, using your camcorder, drain the charge completely once every 6 months to keep the battery functioning properly. To store the battery, remove it from your camcorder and put it in a cool, dry place.

•Battery capacity decreases over time and through repeated use. If decreased usage time between charges becomes significant, it is probably time to replace the battery with a new one.
