Back Lamp Operation
5. After charging is complete, disconnect the USB cable from the camera
and then from the computer.
NOTE
• Even if you turn off the camera, the battery will continue to charge if there is a USB
connection with a computer. Under this condition, the back lamp operates as
described under “Back Lamp Operation” (page 19).
IMPORTANT!
• Charging is not performed while the connected computer is in the hibernate mode.
• A charging error can occur immediately after charging begins or some time after
charging begins. A charging error is indicated by the back lamp flashing red.
• If low supply capacity exists due to your computer model or connection conditions,
charging will start without the camera turning on. Turning on the camera in this
case will cause charging to stop and enter USB data communication between the
camera and the computer. The camera’s back lamp will be lit green at this time.
