To charge your Kodak Easyshare DX6490 Zoom camera, follow these steps:
1. Ensure you have the correct charging equipment: You will need the Kodak Easyshare Camera Dock or the Kodak Easyshare Camera Dock II, depending on the model you have.
2. Connect the dock power cord: Plug the power cord into the power adapter that came with your camera dock. Then connect the other end of the cord to an electrical outlet.
3. Attach the dock to the camera: Place the camera on the dock, aligning the connectors on the dock with the corresponding connectors on the bottom of the camera. Gently push the camera down until it is securely connected to the dock.
4. Start the charging process: The camera dock should automatically start charging the camera once it is connected properly. You may see a charging indicator light on the dock or a notification on the camera's screen indicating that it is charging.
5. Let the camera charge: Leave the camera on the dock for the recommended charging time. This time may vary depending on the battery's level, but it is generally advised to leave it for several hours or until the charging indicator shows the battery is fully charged.
6. Disconnect the camera: Once the battery is fully charged, you can disconnect the camera from the dock by gently lifting it off.
Note: If you do not have a camera dock, you can also charge the Kodak Easyshare DX6490 Zoom camera by using a compatible AC adapter specifically designed for Kodak Easyshare cameras. Insert the adapter into the DC-in port located on the side or bottom of the camera, connect the adapter to an electrical outlet, and allow the camera to charge in the same way as described above.
