Camera maintenance
•If the indicator light blinks in orange or does not illuminate, reconnect
the cable, or remove the battery and insert it again.
•If you charge the battery when the cable is overheated or the
temperature is too high, the indicator light may turn orange. Charging
will start when the battery cools down.
•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.
Notes about charging with a computer connected
•Use only the provided USB cable.
•The battery may not charge when:
- you use a USB hub
- other USB devices are connected to your computer
- you connect the cable to the port on the front side of your
computer
- the USB port of your computer does not support the power output
standard (5V, 500mA)
Handle and dispose of batteries and chargers with care
•Never dispose of batteries in a fire. Follow all local regulations when
you dispose of used batteries.
•Never place batteries or cameras on or in heating devices, such as
microwave ovens, stoves, or radiators. Batteries may explode when
they are overheated.
