When using the battery for the first time, charge the battery and insert it into
the camera.
1
Open the battery cover.
Lift the battery cover unlock lever, turn
towards OPEN (1) to unlock, and then
pull the cover open (2).
Do not use the provided battery charger to charge batteries other than
rechargeable lithium-ion battery D-LI50. Charging other batteries may cause
damage or heating.
If the battery is correctly oriented and inserted into the battery charger but the
indicator lamp is not lit, the battery is faulty. Install a new battery in the
camera.
The maximum charging time is approximately 180 minutes. Charge in a
location where the temperature is between 0°C and 40°C. (Charge time
depends on temperature and remaining battery power.)
If usage time is reduced even when properly charged, the battery has
reached the end of its usage span. Install a new battery in the camera.
Inserting/Removing the Battery
Do not open the battery cover or remove the battery while the power is on.
Remove the battery when you will not use the camera for a long while. The
battery may leak.
If the date and time settings have been reset when you insert a new battery
after a long time, follow the procedure for “Setting the Date and Time”. (p.48)
Insert the battery correctly. If the battery is inserted incorrectly, it may cause
camera breakdown. Wipe the electrodes of the battery with a soft dry cloth
before inserting.
Be careful as the camera or battery may become hot when the camera is
used continuously for a long period of time.
