On the battery charger and the batteries
On the battery charger (supplied with
DSC-S90/S80)
• Do not charge any other batteries except Sony
Nickel-Metal Hydride batteries in the battery
charger supplied with your camera. If you try to
charge any other type of battery (e.g.,
manganese batteries, alkaline dry cells, primary
lithium batteries, or Ni-Cd batteries) than the
batteries specified, those batteries may leak,
overheat, or explode, causing the danger of
burns or other injuries.
• Remove the charged batteries from the battery
charger. If you keep charging them, there is a
danger of leaks, excessive heat, explosions, or
electric shock.
• When charging a high capacity battery other
than the supplied battery using the supplied
battery charger, the full capacity of the battery
may not be available.
• When the CHARGE lamp flashes, this may
indicate a battery error or that batteries other
than the specified type have been inserted.
Check that the batteries are the specified type. If
the batteries are the specified type, remove all
the batteries, replace them with new ones or
another ones and check if the battery charger
operates correctly. If the battery charger
operates correctly, a battery error may have
occurred.
• If the battery charger is dirty, charging may not
be performed successfully. Clean the battery
charger with dry cloth, etc.

On Nickel-Metal Hydride batteries
• Do not peel off the external seals or damage the
batteries. Never use batteries from which the
seals have been partially or completely
removed, or batteries that have been split in any
way. These may cause leakage, explosion, or
heat-up of the battery, and personal scald or
injury may be caused. These may cause a
malfunction of the battery charger.
• Always carry the Nickel-Metal Hidride batteries
in the battery case (supplied with DSC-S90/
S80). Otherwise, metallic objects may short the
+ and - ends, resulting in the risk of heating or
fire.
• If the poles of the Nickel-Metal Hydride
batteries are dirty, the batteries may not charge
properly. Wipe them with a dry cloth, etc.
• At the time of purchase, or when the Nickel-
Metal Hydride batteries have not been used for a
long time, they may not full charge. This is
typical of this type of battery, and is not a
malfunction. If this happens, repeatedly using
up the batteries fully, and then recharging them
should correct the problem.
• If you recharge Nickel-Metal Hydride batteries
before fully using up the existing charge, the
low battery warning may be displayed sooner
than expected. This is called the “memory
effect.”* If this problem occurs, charging the
batteries only after using up the existing charge
will correct it.
* The “memory effect” - the situation in which
the capacity of the battery is temporarily
lowered.
• To use up the batteries completely, put the
camera in the slide show mode (page 40) and
leave it that way until the batteries are used up.
• Do not mix new and used batteries.
• Do not expose the battery to water. The battery
is not water-resistant.
