•Recording once every 30 seconds with full flash every second recording.

•Rotating the zoom lever from Tele to Wide or vice versa in every recording.

•Turning the camera off every

10 recordings and leaving it until the temperature of the battery decreases.

¢The number of recordable pictures decreases when the power LCD function or high angle mode (P36) are used.

•CIPA is an abbreviation of [Camera & Imaging Products Association].

The number of recordable pictures varies depending on the recording interval time.

•The [CHARGE] indicator lights when charging starts.

∫When the [CHARGE] indicator flashes

• The battery temperature is excessively high or low. The charging time will be longer than normal. Also, charging may not be completed.

• The terminals of the charger or the battery are dirty. In this case, wipe them with a dry cloth.

• When the operating time of the camera becomes extremely short even after properly charging the battery, the life of the battery may have expired. Buy a new battery.

∫Charging conditions

•Charge the battery in a temperature between 10 oC to 35 oC (50 oF to 95 oF). (The battery temperature should also be the same.)

•The performance of the battery may temporarily deteriorate and the operating time may become shorter in low temperature conditions (e.g. skiing/ snowboarding).

•The battery may swell and its operating time may become shorter as the number of times it is charged increases. For long term battery use, we recommend you do not frequently charge the battery before it is exhausted.
