2 Insert the battery

Remove the battery terminal cover and insert the battery as shown, matching the projections on the battery to the indentations in the charger.

3 Charge the battery

The CHARGE lamp will blink as the battery recharges. (If the lamp flickers rapidly, either the temperature is not in the range of 5–35°C/41– 95°F supported by the charger or the battery is faulty. If the battery is faulty, unplug the charger immediately and bring the battery and charger to a Nikon-authorized service representative for inspection.) A fully-exhausted battery will charge in about two hours.

Charging is complete when the CHARGE lamp stops blinking. Remove the battery and unplug the charger.
