ВАЖНО

Перед подсоединением и отсоединением компактного блока питания выключайте видеокамеру. После нажатия кнопки P для выключения видеокамеры производится обновление важных данных в памяти. Обязательно дождитесь выключения зеленого индикатора ON/OFF (CHG).

Не подключайте к разъему DC IN видеокамеры или к компактному блоку питания никакое другое электрическое оборудование, кроме явно рекомендованного для использования с этой видеокамерой.

Во избежание отказа и излишнего нагрева оборудования не подсоединяйте входящий в комплект поставки компактный блок питания к преобразователям напряжения (во время зарубежных поездок) или к специальным источникам питания (например, к розеткам на борту самолетов или кораблей, к инверторам и т.п.).

ПРИМЕЧАНИЯ

Аккумулятор рекомендуется заряжать при температуре от 10 до 30 °C. При выходе температуры окружающей среды или аккумулятора за пределы диапазона от 0 до 40 °C зарядка не начинается.

Аккумулятор заряжается только при выключенной видеокамере.

При отключении питания во время зарядки аккумулятора убедитесь в выключении индикатора ON/OFF (CHG) перед повторным включением питания.

Если оставшееся время работы от аккумулятора является критичным, для питания видеокамеры можно использовать компактный блок питания, чтобы аккумулятор не разряжался.

Заряженные аккумуляторы постепенно самопроизвольно разряжаются. Поэтому заряжайте их в день использования или накануне, чтобы обеспечить полный заряд.

При первом использовании дополнительно приобретаемого аккумулятора полностью зарядите его, а затем работайте с видеокамерой до полной разрядки аккумулятора. Эта операция обеспечит правильность отображения оставшегося времени съемки.

Рекомендуется подготовить запасные аккумуляторы в расчете на время съемки, в 2–3 раза превышающее планируемое.
