Battery charger
• Only NP-BN-type battery packs (and no others) can be charged in the battery charger (supplied). 
Batteries other than the specified kind may leak, overheat, or explode if you attempt to charge them, 
posing a risk of injury from electrocution and burns.
• The CHARGE lamp on the supplied battery charger has the following two flash patterns.
Fast flash: The lamp repeatedly flashes on and off at approximately 0.15-second intervals.
Slow flash: The lamp repeatedly flashes on and off at approximately 1.5-second intervals.
• Remove the charged battery pack from the battery charger. If you leave the charged battery pack in the 
charger, battery life may be shortened.
• When the CHARGE lamp flashes, remove the battery pack being charged, and then insert the same 
battery pack into the battery charger again until it clicks. When the CHARGE lamp flashes again, this 
may indicate a battery error or that a battery pack other than the specified type has been inserted. Check 
that the battery pack is the specified type. If the battery pack is the specified type, remove the battery 
pack, replace it with new one or another one and check if the battery charger operates correctly. If the 
battery charger operates correctly, a battery error may have occurred.
• If the CHARGE lamp is flashing slowly, it is in standby mode and charging has temporarily stopped. 
Charging stops temporarily and standby mode results when the temperature is outside the range suitable 
for charging. Charging resumes and the CHARGE lamp lights when the temperature returns to the range 
suitable for charging. We recommend charging the battery pack in an ambient temperature of between 
10°C to 30°C (50°F to 86°F).
