Important information about USB cable usage. Use a USB cable with the correct specification.
If the camera is connected to the PC through a USB hub : connect the camera directly to the PC.
If the camera and other devices are connected to the PC at the same time : remove other device.
If the USB cable is connected to a port located on the front of the PC : remove the cable and connect it to a port located on the back of the PC.
If the USB port of the PC doesn’t meet the Power output standard (4.2V, 400mA), the camera may not be charged.
How to charge the rechargeable battery.

If you charge the battery with the camera power on, the battery won’t be fully charged. Turn the camera off while charging the battery.

If you insert the fully discharged battery to charge it, do not turn on the camera at the same time. The camera may not be turned on because of the low battery capacity. Charge the battery for more than 10 minutes before using the camera.
Do not use the flash frequently or take a movie clip with the fully discharged battery charged for a short time. Even if the charger is inserted, the camera power may be turned off because the rechargeable battery is discharged again.
