Charging the Battery

Use the dedicated charger and battery.

The battery is not charged when the camera is shipped. Charge the battery before use.

Charge the battery with the charger indoors.

Charge the battery in a temperature between 10 oC to 35 oC. (The battery temperature should also be the same.)

1

Attach the battery with

 

attention to the direction of the

 

 

battery.

2

Connect the AC cable.

The AC cable does not fit entirely into the AC input terminal. A gap will remain as shown below.

Charging starts when the [CHARGE] indicator A lights green.

Charging is complete when the

[CHARGE] indicator A turns off (after approx. 130 min maximum).

3

Detach the battery after

 

charging is completed.

 

Note

After charging is completed, be sure to disconnect the power supply device from the electrical outlet.

The battery becomes warm after using it and during and after charging. The camera also becomes warm during use. This is not a malfunction.

The battery will be exhausted if left for a long period of time after being charged.

The battery can be recharged even when it still has some charge left, but it is not recommended that the battery charge be frequently topped up while the battery is fully charged. (The battery has characteristics that will reduce its operating duration and cause the battery to swell up.)

When the operating time of the camera becomes extremely short even after properly charging the battery, the life of the battery may have expired. Buy a new battery.

Do not leave any metal items (such as clips) near the contact areas of the power plug. Otherwise, a fire and/or electric shocks may be caused by short-circuiting or the resulting heat generated.
