GETTING UP AND RUNNING
CHARGING THE BATTERY
Before the camera can be used, the lithium-ion battery must be charged. Before charging the bat-
tery, read the safety warnings on pages 3 and 4 of this manual. Only recharge the battery with the
supplied battery charger. The battery should be recharged before each shooting session. See page
107 for battery care and storage.
INSERTING THE BATTERY
This digital camera uses one NP-700 lithium-ion battery. Before using the battery, read the safety
warnings on pages 3 and 4 of this manual. When replacing the battery, the camera should be
turned off (p.19).
1. Slide the battery-chamber door toward the side of the camera to release the safety catch. Open
the door.
2. Slide the battery into the battery chamber with the battery terminals first.
3. Close the battery-chamber door and slide it toward the camera to engage the safety catch.
After installing the battery, the set-time/date message may appear on the monitor, see page 20 on
how to set up the clock. An internal battery protects the clock, calender, and memory settings for
about six days if the battery is in the camera for approximately 24hours.
With the battery terminals forward lower the battery into the charg-
er so the guides in the charger bed enter the channels on the bat-
tery. Slide the battery forward into the charger.
Plug the power cord into the back of the charger unit (1). Plug
the other end of the cord into a live household outlet. The
included AC cord is designed for the current of the sales region.
Only use the cord in the region it was purchased.
For the additional purchase information of the AC cables, see
page 106.
The indicator lamp (2) glows to show the battery is charging. The lamp
goes out when the battery has been charged. Charging time is approxi-
mately 90 minutes. Remove the battery from the charger. Unplug the
power cord from the outlet.
