The battery charging stand supplied with the camera is designed to
switch automatically to the voltage (100-240V) and frequency (50Hz,
60Hz) of the electricity supply in the country or region where used.
However, electrical socket shapes differ depending on the country or
region. Before traveling abroad, you are advised to check the socket
shape in your destination (see “Main Socket Types in the Major
Countries and Regions of the World” (p.19)) a
nd take an appropriately
shaped off-the-shelf adapter plug with you. (Electrical socket shapes
may vary depending on every region in the country. Check the socket
shape used in the region.)
The socket shape does not affect the charging method.

Charging the Battery Abroad

• Use of an off-the-shelf transformer may lead to defective
