Carrying strap 1, 2

The carrying strap is attached by firstly withdrawing the safety collar. The hook is then freed and attached to the strap lug (fig. 1). Slide back the safety collar (fig. 2) to ensure the hook remains in the locked position between the small protruding lugs. The collar is purposely a tight fit and might need some effort to slide.

Rechargeable battery grip

The Battery grip rechargeable 7.2V (3043348) is the standard power source for the H4D camera and is an environmentally

approved­ Li-ion type. The H4D requires a power supply for all actions as there is no mechanical reserve facility. When working untethered, it is therefore advisable to keep the reserve battery grip complete with fresh lithium batteries handy (if you do not use a spare rechargeable battery grip). As is the case with most

batteries, problems might be encountered when used in very low temperatures. In this situation it is advisable to keep the reserve battery in an inside pocket, for example, to maintain it near body temperature (both sorts of battery grips are referred to as the

Fitting and removing a battery 3, 4, 5

The fitting and removing procedure is the same for both types of battery grip.

Remove the battery from the camera by depressing the battery holder button (A) and simultaneously swinging the battery hold- er retaining lever (B) down until it stops. Pull the battery down- wards (C).

If you intend to store the battery separately from the camera you should ensure that the safety cover is in place (to prevent short- circuiting). It snaps into place and is removed by pulling outwards and upwards on the locking clip (fig. 4).

To fit, hold the battery flat against the camera body and aligning the two upper lugs with the slot, slide it back into position as far as it will go. Swing back the battery holder retaining lever until it clicks back into place.

The battery charger 6, 7

The battery charger unit is supplied with five plug attachments to suit various types of domestic electrical sockets available world- wide. Other types of socket will require a domestic socket con- verter. Attach the chosen plug (fig 7) by sliding it into position, ensuring that the two electrical contact prongs on the charger correctly enter the two contact sockets on the plug attachment. Removal is by the reverse procedure.

Please note the Battery charger BC-H Li-ion 7.2 VDC (3053568) is designed for use with Battery grip rechargeable 7.2V units only.
