When the HP AC adapter is used to charge the battery and the camera is off, the Power/Memory 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 yellow to indicate recharging.

If you will not be using your camera immediately after charging the battery, we recommend that you leave the camera in the dock or plugged in to the HP AC adapter. The camera will top off the battery periodically to ensure that the camera is always ready for use.

Some things to keep in mind when using a Lithium Ion battery are as follows:

The first time that you use a new Lithium Ion battery, be sure that you fully charge it before using it in the camera.

A Lithium Ion battery discharges when not in use, whether it is installed in a camera or not. If a Lithium Ion battery has not been used for more than two months, recharge it before using it again. Even if you are not using your battery, it is a good idea to charge it every six months to a year to prolong its useful life.
