CHARGING THE BATTERY PACK CAUTION Do not charge the battery pack immediately after the camera has been in continuous use for a long time i The battery pack becomes hot when the camera is used continuously for a long time. If you attempt to charge the battery pack in this state, the multiindicator may flash red and it may not be possible to charge the battery pack. Wait until the battery pack has cooled down before attempting to charge it. Does the battery pack appear swollen? i The lithium-ion battery used in this camera may expand slightly when stored in a hot environment or repeatedly used, but this is not a safety hazard. However, a battery that is difficult to insert because it has become swollen may then be impossible to extract from the battery compartment. In this case, please discontinue its use and replace it with a new battery. Do not use the battery with the outer covering or label removed i Doing so may result in malfunction. HINT About the internal backup battery i This camera's internal battery serves to maintain the date and time settings, as well as the shooting settings. The backup battery will be fully charged when the battery pack is kept in the camera continuously for about 2 days. In the fully charged state, the backup battery will maintain the camera settings for about 7 days. When not using the camera for a long time, remove the battery pack i A small amount of power is still used even if the camera is turned off, and it is therefore recommended that the battery pack be removed from the camera if it is not going to be used for a long time. Note that when the battery pack is removed for a long period, the time and date settings may be cleared. Before using your camera again, be sure to confirm that the camera settings are correct. Recharging when connected to the USB terminal i The battery can be recharged while the camera is connected to a computer. i Note, however, that the time it takes to recharge will differ depending on the camera's operating condition. i Connect the dedicated USB interface cable to the USB connector on your computer. Do not connect it to the USB connector on the monitor or the keyboard, or to the USB hub. i If the camera is not going to be used for an extended period of time, please disconnect the dedicated USB interface cable from the camera. 17 English
