Battery charging
The Leaf AFi camera system utilizes a sophisticated power mechanism, which is designed to maximize
battery life. Follow the charging instructions to get the most from your batteries.
There are two ways to use the battery charger:
●
Plugged into a wall socket
●
Plugged into a cigarette lighter in your car
Before using the camera system for the first time, charge the batteries for 12 hours. After the initial charge,
charging the batteries takes just a few hours.
Note: The first time you charge the battery, be sure to charge the battery for 12 hours, regardless of the
indicator light turning off.
Maximizing battery use
Many factors contribute to the amount of shots that can be taken with a single battery. The following will
help you get the most out of your battery:
●
Set your camera system to enter sleep mode, or turn it off, when not in use.
●
Set the backlight on the imaging module to turn off after the camera system has been idle for a certain
amount of time.
●
Do not lock the mirror up unnecessarily.
Note: Extreme (cold or hot) temperature environments have an adverse effect on battery power. Charging
batteries in extreme temperature environments does not guarantee a full charge.
Note: Older batteries are less effective, even when not used.
