Operating Precautions
Before you use the battery pack for the first
time, charge it fully.
Full Charging Time: Approx. 90 minutes
(Based on Canon’s standard testing method with
the Compact Power Adapter CA-PS100E. )
Charge times will vary with ambient tempera-
tures and battery charge states.
To prolong the life of the battery pack and
prevent deterioration of performance, do not
charge for more than 24 hours at a time.
Recharging before the battery pack is fully
discharged may diminish the capacity of the
battery. If this should occur, you may restore
it by fully charging and discharging it.
The capacity of battery packs left unused
for long periods (more than 1 year) will be
shorter than normal immediately after use
is resumed.
Appendix A continued....2/4
The capacity can be restored by fully
charging and discharging the battery
pack several times.
Replace a battery pack if it repeatedly fails to
record the rated number of images after being
charged the specified length of time.
