Charging temperature  
• To provide maximum battery efficiency, the recommended temperature  
range when charging is 10 °C to 30 °C (50 °F to 86 °F).  
• This unit complies with quick charging, but charging outside the  
recommended temperature range will lead to longer charging times in  
order to protect the battery pack. Once the charging time has been  
extended, it will not return to quick charging even if the temperature is  
brought within the recommended temperature range. Reattach the  
battery pack and then recharge it.

– When charging a battery other than an “InfoLITHIUM” battery pack  
(Battery life display and other functions are not available.)  
Full charging requires about one hour after normal charging is complete.  
If you remove the battery pack between normal charge and full charge,  
the charging time may not be displayed properly in the next charging.  
When charging a battery that has not been used for a long time, the  
displayed battery life and full charge time sometimes differ from the  
actual times. This is not a malfunction. If this happens, fully charge the  
battery pack. The correct times can then be displayed.  
If you install a fully charged battery pack in this unit, “TIME TO CHG  
FULL 1h” may appear on the display. This is not a malfunction.  
It may take some time after pressing DISPLAY for the time to be  
displayed.  
– Dusty or dirty  
In locations such as the seashore and other sandy areas or where dust  
clouds occur, protect the unit from sand and dust. There is risk of break  
down.

Charge the battery pack on a flat surface without vibration.  
Do not use the unit placed in a narrow space, such as between a wall and  
furniture.  
Attach the battery pack firmly.  
The battery terminal may be damaged if the battery pack is not attached  
correctly.  
Do not use this unit in a place with strong radio waves or radiation. Video  
cameras etc. may not be able to record or play back correctly.  
To protect the battery pack, remove the battery pack from the unit as soon  
as the charging is completed.  
Do not apply mechanical shock or drop the unit.  
Keep the unit away from a TV or AM receivers. In particular, noise from  
the device may enter a TV or radio if it is placed nearby.  
Use this unit near to a wall outlet. This is to ensure that the power plug  
can be immediately unplugged from the wall outlet to turn the power off  
if some abnormality occurs during use.  
To Charge the Battery Pack  
This symbol is intended to alert the user to the presence  
of uninsulated “Dangerous voltage” within the  
product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude  
to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.  
See illustration B-1.  
Also refer to the operating instructions of your device (video camera  
etc,) and battery pack.

To display the battery life of a new battery pack, first install it in your  
video camera recorder and use it for about 20 seconds, and then charge it  
with this unit.  
It may take some time for the time to be displayed for the battery pack  
that is not being charged. Sometimes the time may not be displayed at all  
due to the condition of the battery pack. Neither case is a malfunction.  
In the following cases, some deviance may occur in the time displayed.  
This is not due to any malfunction.  
– If the battery pack is removed from this unit after normal charge is  
finished but before full charge is finished. (It takes about one hour from  
when normal charge is complete to when full charge is complete.)  
– When charging a battery pack that has not been use for a long time.  
(Fully charge once first.)  
– When charging a P series “InfoLITHIUM” battery pack, it may take  
about one minute after installing the battery pack for the time to appear  
in the display window.

battery pack (not supplied) and a video camera that has a power  
consumption of 1.8 W when used without its LCD display.  
When using a battery pack immediately after running it down with a video  
camera. Except a battery pack that has deteriorated, for example because it  
has not been used for a long time. There are two kinds of charging, normal  
charge and full charge. The approximately 25% increase compared to  
existing products means the rate of improvement in complete normal  
charging time compared to our existing AC adapter/charger AC-VQP10.  
Generally, the charging time and available recording time depend on the  
battery pack and the conditions of use.
