Charging the Battery
with the Charger
The battery is not charged when the
camera is shipped. Charge the battery
before use.
1 Insert the battery terminals and
attach the battery to the charger.
2 Connect the AC cable.
• The AC cable does not fit entirely into
the AC input terminal. A gap will remain
as shown below.
• Charging starts when the [CHARGE]
indicator lights green.
• Charging is complete when the
[CHARGE] indicator turns off (after
about 120 minutes).
• When the [CHARGE] indicator flashes,
read P13.
3 Detach the battery after charging
is completed.
• After charging is completed, be sure to
disconnect the power supply device from
the electrical outlet.
• The battery becomes warm after using it
and during and after charging. The
camera also becomes warm during use.
This is not a malfunction.
• The battery will be exhausted if left for a
long period of time after being charged.
Recharge the battery when it is
exhausted.
• The battery can be charged even if it is
not fully discharged.
• Use the dedicated charger and battery.
• Charge the battery with the charger
indoors.
• Do not disassemble or modify the
charger.
• Do not leave any metal items (such as
clips) near the contact areas of the
power plug. Otherwise, a fire and/or
electric shocks may be caused by
short-circuiting or the resulting heat
generated.
