When you use the battery, carefully read and strictly observe the Safety Precautions and
the notes described below.
* The battery is not fully charged when you buy your battery. Be sure to charge the battery
before use.
About Battery Use
The battery gradually discharges even when not used. Charge the battery one or two days
before use.
To maximize the battery life, switch the camera OFF as often as possible when it is not
being used.
In cold locations, the number of frames that can be taken decreases. Take along a spare
fully charged battery. You can also increase the amount of power produced by putting the
battery in your pocket or another warm place to heat it and then loading it into the camera
just before you take a picture.
Always keep the terminals in a clean state.
If the battery is used for a long time, the battery itself will become warm. This is normal and
not a malfunction.
At normal temperatures (+77°F <+25°C>), this battery can be recharged for use about 300
times. If the battery runs out quickly, this indicates that the battery has reached the end of
its effective life and should be replaced.
When Not Using the Battery for a Long Time
When the battery is not in use, be sure to remove it from the camera body. If the battery is
left attached to the camera body or battery charger, a minute current will flow even if the
power is turned OFF. This will result in over discharge and the battery may no longer be
useable.
If the battery is not to be used for a while, store it after there is no power left. If the battery
is stored for a long time in a fully charged state, its performance may be impaired.
When the battery is to be stored for a long time, fully charge the battery and then use the
battery until there is no power left once every year and then store it.
Store the battery in a cool place. We recommend a dry place with a surrounding tempera-
ture of +59°F <+15˚C> to +77°F <+25˚C>. Avoid storing the battery in extremely hot or cold
places.
Charging the Battery
When you use the battery for the first time or when the battery has not been used for a long
time, be sure to charge the battery before use.
Use only the specified AC adapter.
This battery does not need to be fully discharged or exhausted before being charged.
The battery may feel warm after it has been charged or immediately after being used. This
is normal and not a malfunction.
The battery can be charged at temperatures between +41°F <+5°C> and +104°F <+40°C>,
but should be charged between +50°F <+10°C> and +86°F <+30°C> to obtain maximum
battery performance.
Do not recharge a fully charged battery.
