Notes on Battery Usage
When you use the battery, carefully read and strictly observe the Safety
Instructions and the notes described below:
Different types of batteries may have different battery performance.
Avoid using batteries in extremely cold environments as low temperatures
can shorten the battery life and reduce camera performance.
If you are using the new rechargeable batteries or rechargeable batteries that
have not been used for an extended period of time (batteries that pass the
expiry date are exceptions), this might affect the number of pictures that can
be taken. Therefore, to maximize their performance and lifetime, we
recommend that you fully charge the batteries and discharge them for at
least one complete cycle before use.
The battery may feel warm when using the camera for an extended period
of time or using the flash continuously. This is normal and not a malfunction.
The camera may feel warm when being used continuously or for an
extended period of time. This is normal and not a malfunction.
If you do not intend using the batteries for an extended period of time,
remove them from the camera to prevent leakage or corrosion.
Always keep the terminals in a clean state.
Do not use a battery other than that specified for use with your camera.
Use of an unsuitable battery may result in the battery splitting, or leaking
and may cause a fire, injury or soiling of the battery compartment.
