7.1 Charging
The main power source of the camera is the battery. It should be charged fully
before usage - also make sure the battery is charged before prolonged stor-
age. To charge an empty battery fully usually takes 4-6 hours. Please note that
the battery should be charged at temperatures between 0°C and +40°C (+32°
F to +104°F). A new battery used in optimal environment conditions yields
over 7 hours of usage.
The battery and the charger is delivered with the camera. Only use the pro-
vided battery charger. Plug the mains cable of the charger into the wall socket
and the DC connector to the charging connector of the battery (2). When the
status LED of the charger is red the battery is being charged. When the status
LED of the charger is green while the DC connector is connected to the bat-
tery the charge is complete. The status LED is also green when the DC con-
nector is disconnected.
