Camera maintenance

If you reconnect the power cable when the battery is fully charged, the status lamp turns on for approximately 30 minutes.

Using the flash or recording videos depletes the battery quickly. Charge the battery until the red status lamp turns off.

If the status lamp blinks in red, reconnect the cable, or remove the battery and insert it again.

If you charge the battery when the cable is overheated or the temperature is too high, the status lamp may blink in red. Charging will start when the battery cools down.

Overcharging batteries may shorten battery life. After charging is finished, disconnect the cable from your camera.

Do not bend or place heavy objects on the AC cable. Doing so may damage the cable.

Notes about charging with a computer connected 

• Use only the provided USB cable.

• The battery may not charge when:

-- you use a USB hub

-- other USB devices are connected to your computer

-- you connect the cable to the port on the front side of your computer

-- the USB port of your computer does not support the power output standard (5 V, 500 mA)

Handling and disposing of batteries and chargers with care 

Never dispose of batteries in a fire. Follow all local regulations when you dispose of used batteries.

Never place batteries or cameras on or in heating devices, such as microwave ovens, stoves, or radiators. Batteries may explode when they are overheated.
