Batteries
You will need six AA format batteries. You may use rechargeable batteries, but they must
be re-charged using the battery manufacturer’s recommended battery charger.
The number of shots per battery set depends on both the battery chemistry and usage.
Kodak does not recommend the use of standard alkaline batteries for this camera. It is
expected that you will experience 200 image captures or more, under normal usage, when
using high quality/high capacity batteries, for example, NiCAD (nickel-cadmium), NiMH
(nickel metal hydride), or High Energy Lithiums.
As the charge in the batteries gets low, the camera may operate erratically. For example,
there may be excessive integrated flash charging times or excessive time required between
image captures.
Third party external battery packs compatible with this camera may be available. Contact
your Kodak camera dealer for more information.
Handling and Disposing of Batteries
For inadvertent human contact with battery electrolyte, contact the Kodak Information
Center at 1-800-242-2424.
In the unlikely event that a battery leaks, the Kodak Information Center will provide
information to U.S. customers on removing battery electrolyte from camera components
such as the battery compartment or camera lens. Outside the United States, contact the
equivalent regional number.
CAUTION:
You must only use 1.5-volt AA batteries with your DCS 315 or DCS 330 camera.
Inserting 3 volt lithium batteries will damage your camera
