The CHARGE lamp in the display window flashes when charging begins.
When the CHARGE lamp goes off, normal charge is completed. For full
charge, which allows you to use the battery longer than usual, leave the
battery pack inserted for about one hour after normal charge is completed until
the battery remaining indicator and "FULL" is displayed alternately in the
display window.
Battery remaining indicator
The LCD screen on the camera shows the remaining time for which you can still
record or play back images.
This indication may not be entirely accurate depending on the conditions of use and
the operating environment.
Auto power-off function
If you do not operate the camera for about three minutes during recording, the
camera turns off automatically to prevent wearing down the battery. To use the
camera again, slide down the POWER switch to turn on the camera again.
