Managing Batteries
The performance of all rechargeable batteries, including
NiMH, will degrade over time, especially if they are
stored and used at high temperatures. If battery life has
become unacceptably reduced over time, replace the
batteries.
The camera, dock, or quick recharger may be warm
while operating and charging NiMH batteries. This is
normal.
NiMH batteries can be left in the camera, dock, or quick
recharger for any period of time without harm to the
batteries or the camera, dock, or quick recharger. Always
store charged batteries in a cool location.
Safety Precautions for Recharging
NiMH Batteries
Do not charge any batteries other than NiMH batteries in
the camera, dock, or quick recharger.
Insert the NiMH batteries in the correct orientation in the
camera, dock, or quick recharger.
Use the camera, dock, or quick recharger in a dry
location only.
Do not charge NiMH batteries in a hot location, such as
in direct sunlight or near a fire.
When recharging NiMH batteries, do not cover the
camera, dock, or quick recharger in any way.
Do not operate the camera, dock, or quick recharger if
the NiMH batteries appear damaged in any way.
Do not disassemble the camera, dock, or quick recharger.
Unplug the HP AC power adapter or quick recharger
from the electrical outlet before cleaning the power
adapter or quick recharger.
