Charging the Battery

None of the Charger’s Status Lamps Light Up

If the <CAL/CHARGE> lamp lights up but none of the status lamps do, the battery’s internal temperature is outside the required 0°C - 40°C / 32°F - 104°F temperature range. The battery will start recharging when the internal temperature is within 0°C - 40°C / 32°F - 104°F.

All Three Charge Level Indicators Blink

If any of the following occurs, remove the battery from the charger and consult your dealer or nearest Canon Service Center: All the Charge level lamps blink in green, all the Calibration (Discharge) status indicator lamps blink in red, or the indicators blink alternately in red and green (including the <CAL/CHARGE> lamp).

Also, if a battery other than the Battery Pack LP-E4N/LP-E4 is attached to the charger, the indicators will blink in red and green (including the <CAL/CHARGE> lamp) and the battery cannot be recharged.

The charger cannot charge any battery other than the Battery Pack LP-E4N/ LP-E4.

When two battery packs are attached to the charger, the battery attached first will be charged first, then the other battery will be charged. Although one battery can be recharged and another calibrated at the same time, two batteries cannot be recharged or calibrated at the same time.

It is best to perform battery calibration when the battery is nearly exhausted. If you try to calibrate the battery while it is fully charged, it can take as long as approx. 15 hours to calibrate and then fully charge the battery.
