I replace the
camera
batteries
frequently.
(continued)
The NiMH
batteries you
are using were
recharged
incorrectly, or
have drained
on their own
because they
have not been
used lately.
When NiMH batteries are brand
new or have not been used in
several months, they should be
charged and fully drained 3-4
times to reach optimum capacity.
Also, NiMH batteries discharge
on their own when not in use and
when not installed in the camera.
So if you have not used them in a
week or more, they may benefit
from being charged.
The camera
batteries will
not charge.
Rechargeable
batteries are
not inserted.
Install NiMH batteries. Lithium
and alkaline batteries cannot be
recharged.
Batteries are
already
charged.
Battery charging will not start if
the batteries were recently
charged. Try charging them
again after they have drained
awhile.
Battery voltage
is too low for
charging to
start.
The camera will not attempt to
charge batteries that may be
damaged or over-discharged.
Remove the batteries from the
camera and charge them in an
external battery charger, then try
them in the camera again. If this
does not work, it is likely that one
or more of the batteries are bad.
Purchase new NiMH batteries
and try again.
