To a power outlet

•The indicator blinks while charging, then comes on solid when charging is finished.

•This charger can be used only to charge Canon AA-size NiMH batteries. Please do not attempt to charge any other type of batteries with this charger.

•Never mix new batteries together with batteries that have been used in other devices.

•When recharging batteries from the camera, always recharge all four of them at the same time.

•All batteries you place in the charger should be at approximately the same charge state, and should have been purchased at the same time. Don’t mix batteries with different purchase dates or different charge states.

•Do not attempt to recharge fully charged batteries, as doing so may reduce or impair battery performance. Also, do not charge batteries for more than 24 consecu- tive hours.

•Do not recharge batteries in enclosed areas that tend to retain heat.
