HP M407 manual Recharging NiMH Batteries

Recharging NiMH Batteries

NiMH batteries can be recharged in the camera when the camera is connected to an optional HP AC power adapter or HP Photosmart M-series dock. NiMH batteries can also be recharged with the optional HP Photosmart battery quick recharger. See Appendix B: Purchasing Camera Accessories on page 139.

When the HP AC adapter is used to charge the batteries and the camera is off, the Power light on the back of the camera will blink during charging. When the dock is used, the dock light will blink. When the quick recharger is used, the light on the quick recharger will be red.

The following table shows the average time it takes to recharge NiMH batteries that have been fully discharged, depending on where the batteries are being charged. The table also notes the signal you will see when the batteries have been recharged.
