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
When the HP AC power 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 to indicate charging.
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.

If the camera is off, the power light on the camera stops blinking and turns off. If the camera is on with the Image Display on, the 
icon appears.
