Camera maintenance • If you reconnect the power cable when the battery is fully charged, the status lamp turns on for approximately 30 minutes. • Using the flash or recording videos depletes the battery quickly. Charge the battery until the red status lamp turns off. • If the status lamp blinks in red, 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 status lamp may blink in red. 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. Handling and disposing 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.
