Notes
• New batteries or batteries that have not been used for a long time (more than one month) may not be fully charged. This is not
a malfunction, but is a characteristic of the battery. Charge them two or three times before using them for the first time or when
they have not been used for a long period.
• Once battery charging starts, it is recommended to continue charging until the battery has been fully charged, without stopping
charging in the middle. (The remaining battery capacity cannot be indicated correctly unless the battery is charged fully.)
• Whenever possible , use the battery until it has been fully discharged.
(Repeatedly recharging the battery before it has been fully used up may reduce the battery’s service life.)
• In the following cases, immediately unplug the power cord from the wall outlet and contact Olympus;
• if recharging does not complete in 10 hours;
• if the indicator lamp blinks in red while the battery pack is attached correctly as described in this manual.
