in the anti-clockwise direction.
• Connect the mini-USB connector with the mini-USB port "7" of the camera.
• Connect the USB cable either to your computer or to the provided wall plug transformer. Plug
the wall plug transformer into a mains socket. A green illuminated LED signals the power
supply of the wall plug transformer.
• The charging function is signalled by a blue LED on the camera.
Once the battery is fully charged, the LED on the camera changes to green.
• Disconnect the mini-USB connector from the camera and pull out the wall plug transformer
from the mains plug if necessary, or disconnect the USB cable from your computer.
• Always mount the dust protection cap on the camera so that the product continues to retain
its protection type and the connecting contacts are not polluted. Please ensure that the seal-
ing ring in the dust protection cap is also installed.

rst use, the rechargeable battery should be charged for
at least 12 hours.
