Shooting Still Images/Movies - Sony DSC-TX9 Cyber-shot&reg Handbook

The remaining charge indicator is incorrect.
• This is caused 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. Depending on
conditions of use, the display may remain incorrect.
• The battery pack is dead (page 179). Replace it with a new one.
Cannot charge the battery pack.
• You cannot charge the battery pack using the AC Adaptor (sold separately). Use the battery charger
to charge the battery.
The CHARGE lamp flashes while charging the battery.
• Check that the battery pack type is NP-BN1.
• The CHARGE lamp flashes infrequently when you use a battery pack that has not been used for a
long time.
• The CHARGE lamp (on the supplied battery charger) has two flash patterns, fast flash (approx. 0.15-
second intervals) and slow flash (approx. 1.5-second intervals). If the lamp flashes quickly, remove
the battery pack being charged, and then insert the same battery pack into the battery charger again
(until it clicks). If the lamp flashes quickly again, this may indicate a battery pack problem.
If the lamp flashes slowly, the charger is in standby mode and charging has temporarily stopped.
Charging stops temporarily and standby mode results when the temperature is outside the range
suitable for charging. Charging resumes and the CHARGE lamp lights when the temperature returns
to the range suitable for charging.
It is recommended to charge the battery pack within the proper charging temperature range between
10°C to 30°C (50°F to 86°F).
• For details, see page 180.
