The battery charger

1, 2

The battery charger unit is supplied with five plug attachments to suit various types of domestic electrical sockets available worldwide. Other types of socket will require a domestic socket converter. Attach the chosen plug (fig 2, A) by sliding into position, ensur- ing that the two electrical contact prongs on the charger correctly enter the two contact sockets on the plug attachment. Removal is by the reverse procedure.

Charging the battery

If attached, remove the protective cover (fig. 3, B) from the battery by pulling outwards and upwards on the locking clip. Replace the cover after charging if you do not intend to attach the battery to a camera immediately.

With the battery grip removed from the camera, insert the jack plug from the battery charger into the socket (fig. 4, C) on the bat- tery grip. Insert the battery charger into a standard (100–240V~ /50–60 Hz) domestic socket. The red LED indicator on the battery charger signifies the following:

On (not flashing)

= battery is charging

Slow flashing (0.8 Hz)

= charging is complete and condition is being

 

maintained.

Or occasionally

 

Rapid flashing (3 Hz)

= deeply discharged battery is charging

 

(with reduced current)

Please note that rapid flashing of the LED indicator is not to be expected. The battery will not normally be so deeply discharged because the camera will shut down automatically before complete battery discharge takes place. The indicator might also flash rapidly for a few moments in some instances when the charger is connected to the electrical supply.

The normal indication is therefore either ‘not flashing’ or ‘slow flashing’.

Attaching the battery to the camera

The rechargeable battery grip is attached and removed in the same manner as the standard battery grip.

Please note if you want to use the rechargeable battery with an H1 model, the firmware in the camera must be version 8.2.2 or later for the battery grip to function properly.

Rechargeable battery grip – general

•The battery should be charged before first time use.

•Maximum battery capacity is reached only after the battery has been charged and discharged several times.

•The battery is an environmentally approved Li-ion type and has no ‘memory effect’ of practical importance. This means the battery can be charged before it is fully discharged without loss of capacity or performance.

•The battery should be charged at an ambient temperature of 10 −30° C.

•When removing a battery from the charger and immediately replacing it with another, allow a few seconds to elapse so that the charger can automatically reset for the next charging procedure.

•It is perfectly normal for the battery to become warm when being charged.

•A slight temporary loss of battery performance might be noticed at very high or low temperatures. Take the approriate measures if this is the case.
