To connect the HP AC power adapter to the HP Li Ion Battery Recharger in order to power the
Recharger and recharge the HP Li Ion battery:
1 Plug the AC power adapter into a power source, such as a wall outlet or power strip.
2 Place the Li Ion battery in the Li Ion Battery Recharger, ensuring that the arrow on the Li Ion
battery is pointing down.
3 Connect the round end of the AC power adapter’s cable to the connector in the Li Ion Battery
Recharger. The LED on the Battery Recharger will light to show that it is now powered on and is
recharging the Li Ion battery.
Using the HP NiMH Batteries and Recharger
If you purchase the HP NiMH Battery Recharger, which includes 4 rechargeable NiMH batteries,
please note the following:
Before you install the batteries in the HP 912 camera, you must charge all 4 NiMH batteries in
the HP NiMH Battery Recharger per the instructions that came with the Battery Recharger.
You must recharge all 4 NiMH batteries after fully draining them four times for the batteries to
reach their optimum capacity and performance.
Always recharge all 4 NiMH batteries at the same time. One low-charged battery will reduce the
battery life for all 4 batteries in the camera.
Do not store the batteries in the HP NiMH Battery Recharger for an extended period of time if it
is not necessary.
Do not over-charge the batteries. Disconnecting and reconnecting the HP NiMH Battery
Recharger to AC power frequently, without discharging the batteries, may cause over-charging.
Do not expose the NiMH batteries to heat. Permanent damage will result if the batteries are
exposed to temperatures above 110° F or 43° C. Always store the batteries in a cool location.
After long-term storage, recharge all 4 NiMH batteries before use. This is because the battery
cells discharge over time. (At room temperature, NiMH batteries generally discharge at about
1% per day.)
