• The time required for full charge is about 100 minutes.
The appropriate ambient temperature range for charging the
battery is 0°C – 40°C (32°F to 104°F).
• The charging time may vary depending on the ambient
temperature and charging conditions.
• When the battery reaches the end of its service life, the time that
the camera can be operated becomes shorter even when the
battery is fully charged. In this event, replace the battery.
• Always charge the battery before using the camera for the first
time or when the battery has not been used for a long time.
• Do not use the battery charger D-BC8 to charge batteries other
than D-LI8 rechargeable lithium-ion batteries, as the charger may
overheat or be damaged as a result.
• If the battery is inserted correctly but the charging indicator blinks,
the battery may be faulty. Replace with a new battery.
