Using the battery and AC power
You can use the rechargeable Lithium-ion battery or AC power
adapter to power your camera. Before using the camera for the first
time on battery power, you should fully charge the battery for about
3 hours. If the camera is not fully charged the first time, the battery
life may be shortened.
You can also use the AC power adapter to power the camera while
the battery is charging. For more information, see “Connecting the
AC power adapter” on page 11.
Caution To protect your camera from battery leakage or
corrosion, remove the batteries if you do not plan
to use your camera for an extended period of time.
Tips & Tricks Using the camera in low temperatures can shorten
the battery life and reduce the camera
performance. Avoid using the camera battery in
extremely cold environments.
