USING THE CAMERA DURING THE CHARGING OF THE BATTERY
While charging, it is possible to take videos and photos and access the setup
menu. In addition, the VIEW mode can be used if the camera is also con-
nected to a TV using the HDMI cable.
To use the VIEW mode, connect the camera to a TV using the HDMI cable.
See the respective section of this mode to use the buttons.
Charging the battery
The battery level is shown in the upper right corner of the screen in all
camera modes. When the battery level is low, we strongly suggest to charge
the battery before it is empty. If a video is being recorded and the battery
level reaches 0%, the camera saves the file before shutting down.
TO CHARGE THE BATTERY:
1. Using the USB cable included, connect the camera to a USB power
source:
-a computer
-a booster pack
-a car charger XHD-CUSB
-a USB adaptor XHD-A

2. Select "CHARGE ONLY" with the M button and press the OK
button.
3. The battery icon displays the loading progress until the battery is fully
charged. We strongly suggest disabling the REMOTE CONTROL option to
maximize the charging time.
When the battery is empty, the charging time is about 5 hours for the battery
to be fully charged. Replacement batteries are also available (XHD-BATT, sold
separately p.21).
It is also possible to charge the battery by removing it from the camera and
using the dual battery charger (XHD-CHG, sold separately p.21).
