Built-in rechargeable battery

Your camcorder includes a built-in rechargeable battery that retains the date and time settings even after you turn the camcorder’s power off.

If the rechargeable battery discharges completely, the current date/time values are reset to the default values. If this occurs, you need to recharge the built-in rechargeable battery (see below), and then re-set the date and time.

Battery capacity decreases over time and through repeated use. If you find the decreased usage time between charges becomes significant, ask your local Samsung retailer.

Charging the built-in rechargeable battery

The built-in battery is always recharged when you connect your camcorder to AC power or attach the battery pack.

If you do not connect the camcorder to AC power or attach the battery pack for two

weeks, the built-in battery fully discharges. If this occurs, charge the built-in battery by

connecting the camcorder to the AC adaptor for 24 hours.
