Charging the Battery
With Car Battery Cable CB-570 (sold separately), you can connect the
charger’s car battery cable socket (<
DC IN
> terminal) to your car’s
cigarette lighter socket.
When recharging the battery this way, be sure that the car’s engine
is running. Disconnect the car battery cable from the cigarette lighter
socket when the car engine is off. If you leave the car battery cable
connected to the cigarette lighter socket, it may drain the car battery.
Do not use a transformer for the car with the battery charger.
Battery charging from a car battery is possible only with a 12 V DC
or 24 V DC car battery in a minus-grounded car. The shape or
dimensions of the cigarette lighter socket in certain cars might not be
compatible with the car battery cable.
This indicates that you should calibrate the battery so that the correct
battery level is detected and the camera’s battery level indicator can
display the correct battery level. Calibration is not a required
operation. If you just want to recharge the battery, you can let the
battery start recharging automatically after approx. 10 sec. If you want
to perform calibration, press the <
CALIBRATE
> button while the
<
CAL/CHARGE
> lamp is blinking in red. The Charge level indicator
will blink in red and calibration (power discharge) will start.
After calibration is complete, the battery will start recharging
automatically. Note that the less depleted the battery is the longer
calibration will take. The <
2h
>, <
4h
>, and <
10h
> figures on the side of
the Charge level indicator indicate the approximate time it will take to
complete calibration (power discharge). If the <
10h
> indicator blinks in
red, it will take approx. 10 hours.
After calibration is complete and the battery is totally drained, it will
take a further 2 hours to recharge the battery fully. If you want to stop
calibration before it is completed and start recharging the battery,
remove the battery from the charger and attach it again.
