(The battery temperature should also be the same.) A DC input terminal ≥Insert the plugs as far as they will go. 1 Connect the AC cable to the AC adaptor, then the AC outlet. 2 Connect the AC adaptor to the DC input terminal. ≥Be careful not to pinch the DC input terminal cover. ≥The status indicator will flash red at an interval of 2 seconds (approximately 1 second on, 1 second off), indicating that charging has begun. It will turn off when the charging is completed. ∫Connecting to the AC outlet It is possible to use this unit with power supplied from the AC outlet by turning on the unit with the AC adaptor connected. Use it together with the battery when recording for long time the AC adaptor connected. ∫To charge by connecting to other device It is possible to charge by connecting to other device with the USB cable (supplied). When this unit is purchased, the battery is not charged. Charge the battery fully before using this unit for the first time.  

≥Do not use any other AC adaptors except the supplied one.

≥We recommend using Panasonic batteries (l 6, 7). ≥If you use other batteries, we cannot guarantee the quality of this product. ≥Do not heat or expose to flame. ≥Do not leave the battery(ies) in a car exposed to direct sunlight for a long period of time with doors and windows closed. Charging and recording time ∫Charging/Recording time ≥Temperature: 25 oC/humidity: 60%RH ≥Charging times in parentheses are when charging from the USB terminal. ≥These times are approximations. ≥The indicated charging time is for when the battery has been discharged completely. Charging time and recordable time vary depending on the usage conditions such as high/low temperature. ≥Recordable time of 3D recording mode is the same. (During 3D recording mode, 1080/50p and iFrame recording mode cannot be used.) ≥The actual recordable time refers to the recordable time when repeatedly starting/stopping recording, turning the unit on/off, moving the zoom lever etc. ≥The batteries heat up after use or charging. This is not a malfunction. Battery model number [Voltage/Capacity (minimum)] Charging time Recording mode Maximum continuously recordable time Actual recordable time Supplied battery/ VW-VBK180 (optional) [3.6 V/1790 mAh] 2 h 25 min (5 h 45 min) [1080/50p] 1 h 20 min 40 min [HA],[HG] 1 h 25 min 45 min [HX],[HE] 1 h 30 min [iFrame] 1 h 35 min Battery capacity indication ≥The display changes as the battery capacity reduces. # # # # If there is less than 3 minutes remaining, then will become red. If the battery discharges, then will flash. ≥Screen display will disappear when no touch operation is performed for a specific period of time. However, it will be constantly displayed when the remaining battery time becomes less than 30 minutes. ≥The remaining battery capacity is displayed when using the Panasonic battery that you can use for this unit.
