NOTE
• Even if you turn on the camera, the battery will continue to charge if there is a USB
connection with a computer. In this case, however, LED Lamp operation will
change as described below.
LED Lamp Operation
IMPORTANT!
• Charging is not performed while the connected computer is in the hibernate mode.
• When charging the camera by connecting it to a computer, you may need to replug
the USB cable if rebooting the computer.
• A charging error can occur immediately after charging begins or some time after
charging begins. A charging error is indicated by the LED Lamp flashing red.
Other Charging Precautions
• Never use any other type of charger device. Attempting to use a different charger
can result in unexpected accident.
• A battery that is still warm due to normal use may not charge fully. Give the battery
time to cool before charging it.
• A battery discharges slightly even when it is not loaded in the camera. Because of
this, it is recommended that you charge the battery immediately before you need to
use it.
• Charging the camera’s battery may cause interference with TV and radio reception.
If this happens, plug the charger into an outlet that is further away from the TV or
radio.
• Actual charging time depends on current battery capacity and charging conditions.
• Do not use the USB adapter with any other device.
