Charging the battery with a USB-PD-compatible device

  1. Turn off the camera.
  2. Connect the USB Type-C terminal of the camera to the USB Type-C terminal of a device compatible with USB PD (USB Power Delivery) using a commercially available USB Type-C cable (USB-C® – USB-C).
    • Use a USB-PD-compatible device with an output of 18 W (9 V/2 A) or more and a USB Type-C cable (USB-C – USB-C) that supports 3 A or more.

    Charge lamp on the camera (orange)

    Lit: Charging

    Off: Charging finished

    Flashing: Charging error or charging paused temporarily because the camera is not within the proper temperature range

    • Charging time (Full charge): The charging time is approximately 175 min. (when using a USB-PD-compatible device with an output of 27 W (9 V/3 A)).
      The charging time varies depending on the USB-PD-compatible device and USB cable.
    • The above charging time applies when charging a fully depleted battery pack at a temperature of 25 °C (77 °F). Charging may take longer depending on conditions of use and circumstances.
    • The charge lamp turns off when charging is completed.
    • If the charge lamp lights up and then immediately turns off, the battery pack is fully charged.

Hint

  • You can also charge using a device that is not compatible with USB PD. Use a USB Type-C cable (USB-A - USB-C) (commercially available). When you use an AC adaptor, use one with a rated output of 1.5 A or higher.
    Charging may take longer than when using a USB-PD-compatible device.

Note

  • Use a nearby wall outlet (wall socket) when using an AC Adaptor. If any malfunction occurs, disconnect the plug from the wall outlet (wall socket) immediately to disconnect from the power source. If you use the product with a charge lamp, note that the product is not disconnected from the power source even when the lamp turns off.
  • If you turn on the camera, power will be supplied from the wall outlet (wall socket) and you will be able to operate the camera. However, the battery pack will not be charged.
  • If the product is connected to a laptop computer that is not connected to a power source, the laptop battery level decreases. Do not leave the product connected to a laptop computer for an extended period of time.
  • Do not turn on/off or restart the computer, or wake the computer from sleep mode when a USB connection has been established between the computer and the camera. Doing so may cause a malfunction. Before turning on/off or restarting the computer, or waking the computer from sleep mode, disconnect the camera from the computer.
  • Charging cannot be guaranteed with a custom-built computer, modified computer, or a computer connected through a USB hub.
  • The camera may not operate correctly when other USB devices are used at the same time.
  • Before charging, be sure to also read “Notes on the battery pack and charging the battery.”
