Battery" message will appear. Replace with new AA alkaline batteries.
Notes about using the battery
• Avoid exposing batteries to very cold or very hot temperatures (below 0 °C/32 °F
or above 40 °C/104 °F). Extreme temperatures can reduce the charging capacity of
your batteries.
• When you use the camera for an extended period, the area around the battery
chamber may become warm. This does not affect the normal use of the camera.
• In temperatures below 0 °C/32 °F, battery capacity and battery life may decrease.
• Battery capacity may decrease in low temperatures but will return to normal in
milder temperatures.
• Remove the batteries from your camera when storing it for an extended period.
Installed batteries may leak or corrode over time and cause serious damage to
your camera.
• Primary cells cannot be recharged. If you try to recharge it, the batteries may leak.
• Battery capacity may vary by manufacturer.
Cautions about using the battery
Protect batteries and memory cards from damage
Prevent batteries from making contact with metal objects, as this can create a
connection between the + and – terminals of your battery and lead to temporary or
permanent battery damage and may cause a fire or electric shock.
Handling and disposing of batteries with care
• Never dispose of batteries in a fire. Follow all local regulations when you dispose
of used batteries.
• Never place batteries or cameras on or in heating devices, such as microwave
ovens, stoves, or radiators. Batteries may explode when they are overheated.
