Notes on charging time

When using the AC adaptor (supplied)

Charging time

Approx. 120 min

The charging time indicated above is the time required for charging in the case when the battery is completely used up. The time required for charging differs depending on conditions of battery usage. Charging takes longer in cases when temperatures are either high or low and when the battery has not been used for a long period of time.

The time required for charging through the computer varies depending on the specifications of the computer.

Do not use any other USB connection cables except the supplied one or a genuine Panasonic USB connection cable (optional). Using cables other than them may cause a malfunction.

Do not use a USB extension cable.

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

The AC adaptor (supplied) and the USB connection cable (supplied) are dedicated accessories of this camera. Do not use them for other devices.

If there is any trouble related to the electrical outlet (i.e. power failure), charging may not complete properly. Disconnect the USB connection cable (supplied) and reconnect it to the camera.

If the charging lamp does not light or flashes even when the camera is properly connected to the AC adaptor (supplied) or your computer, charging has been put in pause status because the temperature is not in the appropriate range for charging. This is not a malfunction. Reconnect the USB connection cable (supplied) and retry charging in a place where ambient temperature is 10 °C to 30 °C (50 °F to 86 °F) (temperature conditions also apply to the battery itself).
