Getting up and running
Charging the battery
Before the camera can be used, the lithium-ion battery must be charged. Before charging the battery,
read the safety warnings on page 4 of this manual. Only recharge the battery with the supplied battery
charger. The battery should be recharged before each shooting session. See page 166 for battery care
and storage.
With the battery contacts down and toward the
charger, slide the battery into the unit. If the battery
does not slide all the way into the charger, check its
orientation.
Plug the power cord into the side of the charger unit (1).
Plug the other end of the cord into a live household
outlet. The included AC cord is designed for the current
of the sales region. Only use the cord in the region it
was purchased. For more on the AC cable, see page
163.
When the battery has been charged, remove it from the charger. Unplug the power cord from the
outlet.
The indicator lamp (2) glows to show the battery is
charging. The lamp goes out when the battery is
charged. Charging time is approximately 90 minutes.
