If the [CHARGE] lamp starts flashing red, it means
that an error occurs while charging. An error can be
caused by any of the following: a problem with the
USB cradle, a problem with the camera, or a problem
with the battery or how it is loaded. Remove the
camera from the USB cradle and see if it works
normally.
You can use the USB cradle to charge the cameras
battery, to exchange data with a computer over a
USB connection, or when using the Photo Stand
feature only.
IMPORTANT!
It takes about two hours to achieve a full charge.
Actual charging time depends on current battery
capacity and charging conditions.
Use only the USB cradle (CA-21A) that comes with
the camera, the optionally available USB cradle (CA-
21), or the optionally available charger unit (BC-10L)
to charge the special NP-20 rechargeable lithium ion
battery. Never use any other charging device.
Use only the bundled AC adaptor. Never use any
other type of AC adaptor. Do not use optionally
available AD-C40, AD-C620 and AD-C630 AC
adaptors with this camera.
Make sure that the camera connector of the USB
cradle is securely inserted into the cameras
connector as far as it will go.
The [CHARGE] lamp may remain amber colored and
the charge operation may not start right away if you
try to charge immediately after using the camera
(which causes battery to become warm) or when it is
too hot or too cold where you are performing the
charge operation. If this happens, simply wait until
the battery reaches normal temperature. The
[CHARGE] lamp will turn red and charging will start
when the battery temperature returns to the
allowable charging temperature range.
