#
Remove the batteries and store
them when not using the camera
to prevent them from leaking and
damaging the camera.
Keep the batteries warm until just
before using them in the camera.
A cold environment reduces
battery life.
Heavy use of the LCD screen or
Zoom options quickly reduces
battery power.
Have several sets of batteries on
hand when using the camera,
and test them before use.
Battery Charging
A battery charger (not supplied)
may be safely used to recharge
NiMH batteries if a few common-
sense precautions are followed:
Do not mix new and used
batteries.
If batteries are to be charged
together, make sure they are not
already fully charged, require the
same amount of charging, and
charge them together.
Recharge batteries only when
they are in need of it. Do this in a
moderate temperature in an open
area to provide ventilation.
You may recharge batteries only
a finite amount of times. When
they no longer hold a charge, you
need new batteries.
Store the charger after use,
ensuring the batteries have been
removed. If there is a problem
with the charging, unplug the
battery charger.
Periodically cleaning the battery
poles will ensure a proper charge.
It may be necessary to recharge
new NiMH batteries if they have
been on the shelf for a long time.
