Charging and attaching the battery packs
Your battery pack was partially charged before it left the factory. It should have
enough power for you to check that your camera is working properly. However,
you must charge the battery pack fully if you want it to power the camera for
more than a few minutes.
Always turn the camera off before connecting/removing the battery.
1. Connect the power cable to the adapter and plug the power cable
into a mains outlet.
2. Attach the battery pack to the power adapter.
Remove the battery pack’s terminal cover.
Make sure the DC coupler is not connected.
Insert the battery's terminals into the adapter and press the other end until it
clicks into place.
The charge indicator flashes red to show that charging is in progress. Single
flashes mean that the battery pack is less than 50% charged. Double flashes
mean that it is between 50% and 75% charged. Triple flashes mean that it is
more than 75% charged.
The indicator glows steadily when the battery pack is fully charged.
If the indicator blinks twice a second, the battery pack may be defective.
3. Take the battery pack off the adapter and attach it to the camera.
4. Remove the battery pack after use.
Press the BATT. release button and remove the battery.
Be careful that the battery does not fall when you release it.
