Getting Started
Use the rechargeable lithium-ion battery D-LI78 that is provided with the
camera. Charge the battery before using it in the camera for the first
time.
1 Open the battery/card cover.
Move the battery/card cover lock lever to the OPEN position 1 and
open the battery/card cover 2.
• Do not use the supplied battery charger (D-BC78) to charge batteries
other than the rechargeable lithium-ion battery D-LI78, as the battery
charger may overheat or be damaged.
• The battery has reached the end of its service life when it starts to run
down soon after being charged. Replace with a new battery.
• If the battery is inserted correctly but the charging indicator fails to
light, the battery may be faulty. Replace with a new battery.
The time required to fully charge the battery is about 150 minutes (max.).
(The charging time may vary depending on the ambient temperature and
charging conditions.) The appropriate ambient temperature for charging
the battery is 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F).
