The power does not
turn on.
The status indicator

Is the battery sufficiently charged?
Power shuts off on
its own.
To conserve the battery, power automatically shuts off
if the unit has not been in use for about 5 minutes. To
resume unit use, set the mode dial to [OFF] and then
the desired mode position.
When [ECONOMY] is set to [OFF], power does not
shut off automatically. (P.92)

Charge the battery if the remaining battery life
indication is flashing or the [LOW BATTERY.]
message appears on the LCD monitor. (P.22)
The battery runs
down quickly.
Is the battery sufficiently charged?
Is the unit being used in low temperatures?
The battery is affected by ambient temperature. In
cold places, battery availability shortens.
Is the battery at the end of its service-life?
If the battery lasts only a short while when fully
charged, it has reached the end of its service-life.

The battery is
