Camera maintenance
•Using the flash or recording videos depletes the battery quickly.
Charge the battery until the status lamp turns off.
•If the status lamp blinks in red or does not illuminate, reconnect
the cable, or remove the battery and insert it again.
•The camera battery cannot be charged at low temperatures
(below 0 °C) or at high temperatures (above 40 °C).
•Overcharging batteries may shorten battery life. After charging is
finished, disconnect the cable from your camera.
•Do not bend or place heavy objects on the AC cable. Doing so
may damage the cable.
