How to charge the rechargeable battery
INFORMATION
When the camera is not used, turn off the camera power.
Low temperatures (below ) can affect the performance of the battery and you may experience reduced battery life.
Battery will usually recover at normal temperatures.
During extended use of the camera, the camera body may become warm. This is perfectly normal.
Using the AC Charger
Before turning on the camera power with an AC Charger, insert the rechargeable battery that was charged for over 10 minutes with turning off the camera.
If you have access to a mains supply, using an AC Charger allows the camera to be used for long periods of time.
DANGER
Ensure that neither the camera nor Charger comes into contact with water or metallic materials as this may cause damage to camera and AC charger. Please ensure that you use an AC Charger with the correct specification for the camera. Failure to do so may affect your warranty.
Charging with the camera

CAUTION
If the charging LED of the AC Charger does not turn on or blink after inserting the rechargeable battery, please check whether the battery is inserted correctly.
If you charge the battery with the camera power on, the battery can't charge fully. Turn the camera off while charging the battery.
