SilverCrest SCA 5.00 A1
The status indicator of the charging cradle will light orange whilst 
the battery is charging. When the charging process is completed, 
the status indicator will light green. You can then insert the 
rechargeable battery into the camcorder. Depending on the charge

If, after inserting the rechargeable battery, the 
indicator remains green, this means the 
rechargeable battery is already charged or it is not 
correctly inserted. In this case, check the polarity.
You can also charge the camcorder battery by 
leaving it in the camcorder and connecting the 
camcorder to the computer by using the USB/AV 
cable. To do this, proceed as described in steps 1-3

camcorder powered off after the USB cable has been 
connected to the computer, the battery will charge.
