charging takes longer

 

 

 

than about six hours, a timer will terminate it automatically, even if the battery is

 

not fully charged. This is indicated by the back lamp flashing red. If the battery

 

has not been used for a very long time, charging may be terminated

 

automatically and the back lamp may start flashing red after only about 45

 

minutes. In either case, disconnect the USB cable from the camera and then

 

reconnect it to resume charging.

 

Note that even while the connector is fully inserted, you

 

still will be able to see the metal part of the connector as

 

shown in the illustration.
