PREPARING THE CAMERA FOR USE
Before you begin using your Olympus Digital Camera…
a. Charging the battery
The Digital Camera uses an Olympus Lithium ion battery (LI-10B) and dedicated charger (LI-
10C). This is the only battery/charger designed for use with the Digital Camera. The battery
cannot be charged while in the camera.
Note: The Lithium ion battery is not fully charged when the camera is
purchased. You must fully charge the battery using the charger before first use.
• Insert the Lithium ion battery into the charger as indicated in the illustration.
• Connect the battery charger AC cable as shown to a standard wall outlet.
• To fully charge the battery requires approximately 2 hours. The charge indicator light will be red
when charging, and will turn green when the charging process is complete.

respective compartment covers.
• Slide the battery compartment cover in the direction of the arrow, and lift
