Quick Start Basics

IMPORTANT!

• A battery that has not been used for a long time, or ambient temperature extremes

can cause charging to take longer than normal. If charging takes longer than about
five hours, a timer will terminate it automatically, even if the battery is not fully
charged. This is indicated by the back lamp flashing red. If the battery has not been
used for a very long time, charging may be terminated automatically and the back
lamp may start flashing red after only about 60 minutes. In either case, disconnect
the USB cable from the camera and then reconnect it to resume charging.

• Make sure that you insert the cable connector into the [USB] port until you feel it

click securely into place. Failure to insert the connector fully can result in poor
communication or malfunction.

• Note that even while the connector is fully inserted, you

still will be able to see the metal part of the connector as
shown in the illustration.

• Pressing [ON/OFF] (Power) while the USB-AC adaptor is

connected to the camera will turn on the camera with
power being supplied by the battery. Because of this,
charging will stop.

• The USB-AC adaptor will become warm during charging.

This is normal and does not indicate malfunction.
