You may be able to check the charge state depending upon how

the terminal cover is attached (Fig. C, D).

 You are recommended to use it in the camera until it is

completely discharged and to store it in an indoor location

with low relative humidity and between the temperatures of

0 – 30 °C (32 – 86 °F).

Storing a fully charged battery for long periods of time (about one

year) may shorten its life cycle or affect its performance. If you do

not use the battery for long periods of time, charge it fully and

discharge it fully in the camera about once a year before

returning it to storage.

Charging the Battery

 Since this is a lithium-ion battery, you need not completely

discharge it before recharging.

 It takes approximately 1 hour 30 minutes to fully charge the

battery from a fully discharged state (based on Canon’s

testing standards).

• Charging it within a temperature range of 5 – 40 °C (41 –

104 °F) is recommended.

• Charge times may vary according to the ambient temperature

and the battery's charge state.

 You are advised to charge the battery on the day of use, or

one day before, to ensure a full charge.

Even charged batteries continue to discharge naturally.

 If the performance of the battery diminishes substantially

even when it is fully charged, its life has been exceeded and

it should be replaced.
