Using the Rechargeable Battery to Power Your Camcorder
The battery must be charged as described on the next page before it can be used the
first time. Initial charging will take approximately 12 hours for the 234329 battery, and
approximately 16 hours for the 234330 battery. When fully charged, the 234329
battery (model Pro842) should supply about 60 minutes of operating time and the
234330 battery (models Pro847 and Pro848) should supply about 65 minutes of
operating time (depending on how much you use zoom and pause and load and unload
cassettes).
Note: The small marker switch on top of the 234330 battery is for use as a personal reminder to
help you remember to recharge the battery. It has no other function.
