Preparation
When the [CHARGE] indicator flashes
The battery temperature is excessively high or low. The charging time will be longer than
normal. Also, charging may not be completed.
The terminals of the charger or the battery are dirty. In this case, wipe them with a dry cloth.
Note
After charging is completed, be sure to disconnect the power supply device from the electrical outlet.
The battery becomes warm after use it and during and after charging. The camera also
becomes warm during use. This is not a malfunction.
The battery will become exhausted if left for a long period of time after being charged.
The battery can be recharged even when it still has some charge left, but it is not recommended that the
battery charge be frequently topped up while the battery is fully charged. (The battery has characteristics
that will reduce its operating duration and cause the battery to swell up.)
When the operating time of the camera becomes extremely short even after properly charging
the battery, the life of the battery may have expired. Buy a new battery.
Do not leave any metal items (such as clips) near the contact areas of the power plug.
Otherwise, a fire and/or electric shocks may be caused by short-circuiting or the
resulting heat generated.
Battery indication
The battery indication is displayed on the LCD monitor.
[It does not appear when you use the camera with the AC adaptor (DMW-AC5PP;
optional) connected.]
The indication turns red and blinks if the remaining battery power is exhausted. (The status
indicator blinks when the LCD monitor turns off.) Recharge the battery or replace it with a fully
charged battery.
