The QuickTake camera comes with three lithium batteries. In place of the
lithium batteries, the camera can also use NiCad batteries. This appendix
contains important information about the batteries you can use in the
QuickTake camera.
IMPORTANT
Do not use alkaline batteries in the QuickTake camera. They may
not function correctly.
Caring for batteries
Here are some general suggestions for good battery care.
m Always handle batteries carefully.
m Do not short-circuit battery terminals (that is, do not touch both terminals
with a metal object). Do not carry loose batteries in a pocket or purse
where they may mix with coins, keys, or other metal objects. Doing so may
cause an explosion or a fire.
m Do not drop, puncture, disassemble, mutilate, or incinerate the batteries.
m Intense heat can shorten battery life. Do not leave batteries in hot locations
(such as the trunk of a car) for more than a day or two.
m Do not leave NiCad batteries in storage for longer than 6 months without
recharging them. Store unused batteries in a dry place at normal room
temperature.
m Dispose of used batteries according to the battery manufacturer’s
instructions.
