For best results, charge the battery immediately after seeing a low battery indication using the supplied USB-C cable (with an AC wall charger, not supplied). If the battery is allowed to fully drain, allow 2~3 hours before the
charging display appears after connecting to an AC charger. a full charge
(100%) requires 6 hours, a charge to 90% power requires 4 hours. Charging
through a PC USB port is not recommended.
If the camera is not going to be used for an extended period (> 3 months), it
should be charged to 70% then stored at room temperature and recharged
every 6 months. Failure to do so may result in a battery that cannot be recharged and that therefore will require service.
9.3 Reset the Camera
If the camera display freezes or if the camera in any way stops operating normally, press and hold the up and down buttons for at least 10 seconds. Release the buttons when the camera switches OFF. After the device switches
OFF, switch it back ON again to resume use. No data will be lost by resetting
the camera. If problems persist, contact FLIR for support.
