Charging the battery
8
With the battery removed from the camera, insert the jack plug from the battery charger
into the socket on the battery grip. Insert the battery charger into a standard (100–240V~
/50–60 Hz) domestic socket.
It will take about 12 hours to load the battery completely the first time.
There are two types of battery charger. Please check here for the relevant description of
the LED indicator, etc.
On (not flashing)
Battery is charging
Slow flashing (0.8 Hz)
Charging is complete and condition is being maintained.
Or occasionally
Rapid flashing (3 Hz)
Deeply discharged battery is charging (with reduced current)
Please note that rapid flashing of the LED indicator is not to be expected. The battery
will not normally be so deeply discharged because the camera will shut down auto-
matically before complete battery discharge takes place. The indicator might also flash
rapidly for a few moments in some instances when the charger is connected to the elec-
trical supply. The normal indication is therefore either ‘not flashing’ or ‘slow flashing’.

Fault condition
Rechargeable battery grip – general
• The battery should be charged for approximately 12 hours before first time use.
• The battery is best charged at an ambient temperature of 10°−45°C (50°− 113°F).
• Maximum battery capacity is reached only after the battery has been charged and discharged several times.
• Avoid frequent full discharges (a full discharge is signalled by the appearance of the ‘Replace battery’ warning on
the grip display). As the battery is a Li-ion type, it has no ‘memory effect’ of practical importance and therefore
frequent recharges will cause no problems such as loss of capacity or poor performance. It is therefore better
policy to recharge the battery at very regular intervals, regardless of use.
• Remove the battery if you intend to store the camera for some while as it will eventually become completely
drained, even though the camera is turned off.
• The battery has an integrated ‘fuel gauge’ capability that supports the ‘Replace battery’ and ‘Battery status’
functions on the grip display. As with most Li-ion batteries, this capability should be occasionally calibrated,
depending on how much the battery is used. To do this, leave the camera on (or use it), until the ‘Replace battery’
warning appears. Then, recharge the battery for 12 hours. This will improve the accuracy of the measurements.
• When removing a battery from the charger and immediately replacing it with another, allow a few seconds to
elapse so that the charger can automatically reset for the next charging procedure.
• It is perfectly normal for the battery to become warm when being charged.
• A slight temporary loss of battery performance might be noticed at very high or low temperat ures. Take the ap-
propriate measures if this is the case.
• If you do not intend to use the battery for a while, it is best to store it at room temperature with an approximate
30 to 40% charge. You can check the percentage level on the status screen.
• According to the CIPA standard, 200 shots should be expected from a fully charged battery, though this depends
on camera use. In practice, however, with short intervals between shots 1,000 shots can be achieved.
• The battery should have a useable service life of around 400 recharge/discharge cycles.
