Getting Started
This chapter explains preparatory steps before you start 
shooting and basic camera operations.
Attaching the Strap
Pass the end of the strap through 
the camera’s strap mount eyelet 
from the bottom. Then pass it 
through the strap’s buckle as shown 
in the illustration. Pull the strap to 
take up any slack and make sure 
the strap will not loosen from the 
buckle.

1Remove the protective cover.
 Detach the protective cover provided 
with the battery.
2Attach the battery.
 As shown in the illustration, attach the 
battery securely to the charger.
  To detach the battery, follow the 
above procedure in reverse.
3Recharge the battery.
For LC-E8
 As shown by the arrow, flip out the 
battery charger’s prongs and insert 
the prongs into a power outlet.
For LC-E8E
 Connect the power cord to the 
charger and insert the plug into a 
power outlet. 
X Recharging starts automatically and 
the charge lamp lights up in orange.
X When the battery is  fully recharged, 
the full-charge lamp will light up in 
green.
  It takes approx. 2 hours to fully recharge a completely 
exhausted battery at 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, rechar ging in low temperatures (6
°C - 10°C / 
43°F - 50°F) will take longer (up to approx. 4 hours).

Charging the Battery
 Upon purchase, the batter y is not fully charged.
Recharge the battery before using.
  Recharge the battery on the day before or on the day it is to be 
used.
Even during storage, a charged battery will gradually drain and lose 
its capacity.
  After recharging the battery, de tach it and disconnect the 
charger from the power outlet.
  When not using the camera, remove the battery.
If the battery is left in the came ra for a prolonged period, a small 
amount of power current is releas ed, resulting in excess discharge 
and shorter battery life. Store the ba ttery with the protective cover 
(provided) attached. Storing the ba ttery when it is fully charged may 
lower the battery’s performance.
  The battery charger can also be  used in foreign countries.
The battery charger is compatible  with a 100 V AC to 240 V AC 50/
60 Hz power source. If necessary,  attach a commercially-available 
plug adapter for the respective coun try or region. Do not attach any 
portable voltage transformer to the battery charger. Doing so can 
damage the battery charger.
  If the battery becomes exhausted quickly even after being fully 
charged, the battery has reached the end of its service life.
Purchase a new battery.
Tips for Using the Battery and Charger
 After disconnecting the charger’s powe r plug, do not touch the prongs for 
at least 3 sec.
  Do not charge any battery othe r than a Battery Pack LP-E8.
  Battery Pack LP-E8 is dedicated to Canon products only. Using it with an 
incompatible battery charger or prod uct may result in malfunction or 
accidents for which Canon cannot be held liable.
