Using Your Battery Packs Effectively
Immediately After Purchase
Newly purchased battery packs have not been
charged, so charge completely before using.
When charging brand new battery packs,
charge until charge indicator lights, and
disconnect. Then reconnect and charge a
second time.
General Use
Battery packs can be charged when ambient
temperature is between 0°C—40°C. Best
results are achieved between 10°C—30°C.
After battery pack has been fully charged, do
not continue to try to recharge it. Repeatedly
recharging a fully charged battery pack can
cause it to become overcharged.
Repeatedly recharging battery pack before it is
fully discharged will cause its electrical storage
capacity to decrease (charge memory). In such
cases, discharge battery pack completely by
waiting until camera's nrKxJe indicator goes out,
or by using optional VL-20 Battery Video Light
until it grows dim. Irxlicator will go out after it
begins to flash (unless video light is attached),
and battery pack can then be removed.
When using battery pack with the battery video
light, be sure to disconnect battery pack when
the light begins to grow dim. Continuing to use
battery pack in such a situation may cause it to
be discharged below specified level.
Immediately after use, battery pack will be hot
and it is best not to recharge it at this time.
Make sure that battery pack has cooled off
before recharging.
When battery pack has been discharged below
specified level, you may be unable to recharge it
completely (battery pack will not recharge fully
even though charge indicator lights). In such a
case, charge and discharge battery pack
repeatedly (2—3 times) until it is recharged
properly.
