USING YOUR DIGITAL CAMERA SAFELY AND CORRECTLY
(CONCERNING THE DIGITAL CAMERA)
General precautions for the batteries
œ Use the alkaline batteries or other specified batteries with this
digital camera. Manganese batteries cannot be used, since they
have a short battery life and may overheat, causing damage to the
digital camera.
œ Do not use alkaline batteries together with Ni-Cd batteries, or batteries
of different types or different brands at the same time.
œ Make sure not to reverse the polarities ((+) and (–)) when installing the
batteries. Install the batteries as described by the indicated polarity.
œ Using different types of batteries at the same time may generate heat
or cause the batteries to leak, resulting in fire, injury or burns, or
damage to the digital camera and other nearby objects.
œ Use only specified batteries. Using batteries without protective casings
or other inferior products may cause a fire, injury, or burns.
œ The batteries may be warm immediately after the digital camera
is used. If removing the batteries, turn off the digital camera and
allow the batteries to cool down before removing them.
œ If a battery is leaking and the electrolyte gets on your skin or
clothing, immediately rinse with clean water. If the electrolyte
gets into your eyes, you risk losing your eyesight. Immediately
rinse your eyes with clean, running water, and seek medical attention right
away.
œ Do not drop or hit the batteries, or submit them to strong shocks.
œ If the digital camera is not going to be used for a long period of time,
remove the batteries and store them in a cool place. (When the batteries
are removed for a long period, the time and date settings will be cleared.)
œ When disposing of the batteries, make sure to follow all applicable
regulations.
œ If used at temperatures below 10°C, the service life of the batteries will be
shorter than normal (except lithium batteries (CR-V3)).
œ When using rechargeable batteries, use them after being fully charged.
œ Always read the instruction manuals that may come with the batteries or
the battery charger you purchase before use.
