Charging the Camera

  1. Charge the camera.

    • Charge the camera before use.
    • Charge the camera by connecting the camera's Digital terminal to a power adapter (sold separately).
    • After charging begins, the charging indicator blinks slowly in orange.
    • The charging indicator is lit in orange after charging is finished.

  • Charging the camera when it is fully depleted takes approx. 1 hr. and 59 min. at room temperature (23°C/73°F). Charging time varies greatly depending on ambient temperature and remaining capacity.

  • For safety, charging in low temperatures (5–10°C/41–50°F) takes longer.
  • The camera can also be used while plugged in for power. When receiving power, do not allow the terminal cover to come in contact with moving parts of the camera.

Note

  • For charging and powering the camera, an optional USB Power Adapter PD-E1 is recommended. Some commercially available power adapters (USB Type-C Power Delivery, with an output voltage/current of at least 9V DC/2A) have also been confirmed to work with the camera. For details, check the Canon website.

  • Upon purchase, the battery is not fully charged.

    Charge the battery before use.

  • Charge the battery on the day before or on the day it is to be used.

    Charged batteries gradually lose their charge, even when they are not used.

  • Use the camera where the temperature is 0–40°C (32–104°F).

    For optimal camera performance, use where the ambient temperature is 10–30°C (50–86°F). Lower temperatures may temporarily reduce the performance and life of the built-in battery.
