ª Charging environment and charging error
• Charge the battery under temperature of 50°F – 95°F (10°C – 35°C).
(The battery should also be the same temperature.)
• When charging starts, the [CHARGE] indicator lights.
If the charging error occurs, the [CHARGE] indicator blinks at about 1 second
cycles.
In this case, disconnect the AC adaptor from the electrical outlet, remove the
battery and ensure both room and battery temperature are not too low or high and
then charge it again.
If the problem persists, consult the dealer or your nearest servicenter.
• When the operating time of the camera becomes extremely short even if the
battery is properly charged, the life of the battery may be expired. Buy a new
battery.
• The performance of the battery may be temporarily deteriorated and the operating
time may become shorter under low temperature such as skiing grounds.
