    Solution

      When you attach the battery securely and insert the prongs or the plug into a power outlet (see the images below), recharging starts automatically and the charge lamp blinks in orange.
      When the battery is fully recharged, the charge lamp will turn green.

      NOTE
      • It takes approx. 2 hr. and 30 min. hours to fully recharge a completely exhausted battery at room temperature (23°C / 73°F). The time required to recharge the battery will vary greatly depending on the ambient temperature and the battery’s remaining capacity.
      • For safety reasons, recharging in low temperatures (5°C - 10°C / 41°F - 50°F) will take longer (up to approx. 4 hours).
      IMPORTANT
      • After disconnecting the charger’s power plug, do not touch the prongs for approx. 10 sec.
      • If the battery’s remaining capacity (p.470) is 94% or higher, the battery will not be recharged.
      • The charger cannot charge any battery other than Battery Pack LP-E6N/LP-E6.
