The charger has a built-in defective battery
detection sensor. If the battery does not attain a full
charge within 8 hours, it may be overcharged or fully
discharged. If so, the Power and Charge Status
indicators will flash. However, if your battery is larger
than 6,000 ma hrs. it may require more than 8 hours
to charge. Remove battery and charge again.
To determine if the battery is overcharged or
defective, place it on the camcorder and turn the
camcorder on. If the camcorder does not come on,
the battery is probably defective. If the camcorder
does operate, leave the power on for 30+ minutes,
then remove the battery and put it on the charger.
The charger should go into the charge mode
indicated by the blinking green Charge Status
indicator.

Step #4 - Charging the Battery
As soon as the battery is properly mounted,
charging begins as indicated by the green
blinking light on the Charge Status indicator.
When charging is complete, the Charge Status
indicator stops flashing and remains solid green.
At this point, the battery can be removed for use.
Removing the battery at this point will not harm it.
