TIPS ON BATTERY
USE----------
1)
Battery power falls off
in
extremely cold temperatures and
this may cause the camera's photometric circuit to cease
to
operate.
In
this situation, use new batteries and protect the
camera body from the cold. Note that battery power will
be
recovered
as
soon
as
the temperature becomes normal.
2)
When not using the camera for a long period of time, take
batteries out and store them
in
a cool (below 25°C), dry place.
Should the batteries be left
in
the battery chamber for a long
period of time, insufficient contact may occur due to battery
contamination. Thus, it
is
good practice to periodically clean
the batteries and the contact section
in
the battery chamber
with a soft cloth. If the battery chamber
is
stained by a leaking
battery, remove the batteries at once and clean the chamber.

3)
Never mix new and old batteries or batteries of different
makes.
4)
Always check battery power before every shooting session.
It is a good idea to have spare batteries
on
hand during a
lengthy shooting assignment.
5)
Keep batteries away from infants and small children.
In
case
a battery
is
accidentally swallowed, call a doctor immediately
as
the material inside the batteries can cause serious
problems.
6)
Never disassemble batteries or dispose of them by bourning.
