Shooting Still Images/Movies - Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W370 Instruction Manual

The remaining charge indicator is incorrect.
• This phenomenon occurs when you use the camera in an extremely hot or cold location.
• A discrepancy arose between the remaining charge indicator and the actual remaining battery charge.
Fully discharge the battery pack once, then charge it to correct the indication. The indicator may not
be accurate depending on the conditions of use.
• Battery capacity decreases over time and through repeated use. When the operating time per charge
decreases markedly, the battery pack needs to be replaced (page 123). Purchase a new battery pack.
The CHARGE lamp flashes while charging the battery.
• Remove and reinsert the battery pack, making sure it is installed correctly.
• The temperature may be inappropriate for charging. Try charging the battery pack again within the
proper charging temperature range (10 °C to 30 °C (50 °F to 86 °F)).
• Refer to page 124 for details.
