Preparing the Power Supply

You can power the camera using a battery pack or directly using the AC adapter. If you connect the AC adapter
to the camera while a battery pack is attached, the camera will draw power from the power outlet.

Using a Battery Pack

You can power the camera using the supplied BP-A30 Battery Pack or the optional BP-A60 Battery Pack. Both
battery packs are compatible with Intelligent System so you can check the approximate remaining battery usage
time (in minutes) on the screen. For more accurate readings, when using a battery pack for the first time, charge
it fully and then use the camera until the battery pack is completely exhausted.
Charging the Battery Pack
Charge battery packs using the supplied CG-A10 Battery
Charger. Before charging, remove the terminal cover of the battery
pack.
1 Connect the power cord to the battery charger.
2 Plug the power cord into a power outlet.
3 Attach the battery pack to the battery charger.
• Press lightly and slide the battery pack in the direction of the
arrow until it clicks.
• The CHARGE indicator starts flashing and also indicates the
battery pack's approximate charge. The indicator will stay on
when charging has completed.
• You can charge two battery packs simultaneously.
approx. 0% to 49%: Flashes once every 2 seconds
approx. 50% to 74%: Flashes twice every 2 seconds
approx. 75% to 99%: Flashes 3 times every 2 seconds
4 When charging has completed, remove the battery pack from the battery charger.
5 Unplug the power cord from the power outlet and disconnect it from the battery charger.
IMPORTANT
• Do not connect to the battery charger any product that is not expressly recommended for use with this
camera.
• When using the battery charger, do not fix it permanently to one place as this may cause a malfunction.
• To prevent equipment breakdowns and excessive heating, do not connect the supplied battery charger or AC
adapter to voltage converters for overseas travels or special power sources such as those on aircraft and
ships, DC-AC inverters, etc.
NOTES
• We recommend charging the battery pack in temperatures between 10 ºC and 30 ºC (50 ºF and 86 ºF).
Outside the temperature range of 0 ºC to 40 ºC (32 ºF to 104 ºF), charging will not start.
