Battery Handling Precautions
The following precautions are
provided for you to safely get the
most from your battery
performance.
Do not mix old and new, different
types, or different manufacturers
of batteries.
Do not drop batteries or let them
be banged around. This could
damage the casings, causing the
batteries to leak.
If the internal parts or
components of the battery come
into contact with your eyes or
your mouth, flush the affected
site with water and get medical
help.
Do not short-circuit the battery
terminals and be sure to cover
the terminals before you throw
batteries away. If the terminals
contact metal, they may
overheat and explode, causing a
fire.
Inspect your batteries before
using them. Anything out of the
ordinary may indicate a damaged
battery that may leak, overheat
or burst.
Acceptable Battery Types
Two AA-sized Alkaline or two AA-
sized NiMH rechargeable batteries
are the only accepted battery
power source for the camera.
Take note of the following
information when using Alkaline
batteries.
Turn the LCD screen off and
shoot images using the
Viewfinder to lengthen battery
life.
Alkaline batteries may not be
operated in low temperatures
(+5°C /+41°F).
When Alkaline batteries are used,
the battery status may be
displayed incorrectly.
Battery Insertion
When the READY LED is flashing,
the camera is performing an
operation. Do not turn the power off
or open the battery cover to insert
an SD card or change the batteries.
