When not using the camera, remove the battery and attach the protective cover to prevent shorting. Before using the camera again, be sure to recharge the battery. ¡ After the red lamp lights, continue to recharge the battery for an hour to attain a full charge. ¡ By referring to the marking, you can attach the protective cover to the battery to indicate whether the battery has been recharged or not. ¡ After recharging the battery, detach it and unplug the power cord from the power outlet. ¡ The time required to recharge the battery depends on the ambient temperature and battery's recharge level. ¡ The battery pack can operate in temperatures from 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F). However, for full operating performance, using it between 10°C (50°F) and 30°C (86°F) is recommended. In cold locations such as ski areas, battery performance temporarily decreases and the operating time may be shorter. ¡ If operating time is sharply reduced even after normal recharging, the battery pack may have reached its service life. Replace it with a new battery. 19
