Do not use the provided Battery Charger D-BC68P to charge batteries other

battery may have reached the end of its service life)
The maximum charging time is approximately 115 minutes (it depends on
temperature and remaining battery power). Charge in a location where the
temperature is between 0°C and 40°C.
Inserting/Removing the Battery
Insert the battery correctly. If the battery is inserted incorrectly, it may not be
removed. Wipe the electrodes of the battery with a soft dry cloth before
inserting.
Do not open the battery cover or remove the battery while the power is on.
Be careful as the camera or battery may become hot when the camera is
used continuously for a long period of time.
Remove the battery when you will not use the camera for a long while. The
battery may leak.
The date and time may be reset if you leave the battery out of the camera for
long periods of time. If this occurs, follow the procedure described in “Setting
the Date and Time” (p.50) to reset the date and time.
