CHARGING THE LITHIUM-ION BATTERY
Before the camera can be used, the lithium-ion battery must be charged. Before charging
the battery, read the safety warnings on pages 3 and 4 of this manual. Only recharge the
battery with the supplied battery charger. The battery should be recharged before each
shooting session. See page 108 for battery care and storage.
A single battery can be charged. With the battery
terminals forward and the label face up, slide the
battery into the charger. The indicator lamp (3)
will glow to show the battery is charging. The
lamp will go out when the battery has been
charged. Charging time is approximately 80
minutes.

After installing the battery, the set-time/date
message may appear on the monitor. The clock and
calendar is set in the custom 2 section of the setup

calender, and memory settings for more than 24
hours if the camera is used for at least 5 minutes
before removing the battery.
