POWER Lamp Indications During Charging
During normal charging, the POWER Lamp flashes in approx. 1-second intervals. Charging usually
finishes in about 90 minutes. However, if the lamp flashes faster or slower than this (or if POWER
Lamp goes out before charging is finished), it means a problem has occurred. The flashing speed
can tell you what the problem may be. See below.
If you believe a problem has occurred, contact your nearest Servicenter.
Flashing rapidly (approx. 0.5-second intervals):
Possible problem with the unit or battery or the AC adaptor.
Flashing slowly (approx. 6 second intervals):
Temperature of the battery or its surroundings is too high or low, or the battery is over-
discharging. Charging can still continue under these conditions, but will take longer than
normal.
Lamp is OFF (charging is not yet finished):
There may be a problem with the AC adaptor.
