Battery charger/Recharging the battery
The Hähnel Ultima Charger serves to recharge
the high-performance lithium-ion battery sup-
plied with the camera. It is designed for line
voltages from 100 – 240 VAC. Two adapter
plugs are provided for use in Europe and the
USA.
Before using the charger, fit the corresponding
adapter plug (shown above, right). The charger
is then ready for use, and the battery may
be inserted in the charging compartment as
shown. After inserting the battery, the charger´s
LED will light red, showing that charging is in
progress. When the battery has reached 90%
of its capacity, the LED will blink green. When
the battery is fully charged, the LED will con-
tinuously light green, and the battery may be
removed. Depending on the condition of the
battery, charging may take 1 – 2 hours.
Possible malfunctions
The battery should not be charged any further
if the LED lights orange.
If the LED blinks red, the charging temperature
is too high, and the charger will automatically
switch off to prevent damage to battery and
charger.
Charging from an automobile battery
The charger has a 12V socket (12 VDC) and
may be used for charging from an automobile
battery via a commercially available adapter
cable for cigarette lighters.
