13

Accesso

ries

When carrying the battery holder with batteries loaded, be sure to put the

battery holder in the provided case to prevent possible contact with other
metallic objects that could cause short-circuiting. Also, make sure that no
metal gets in between the batteries in the holder.

Never heat the battery holder, put it in fire, or expose it to water or moisture.

Doing so may cause fire or explosion.

„

Operating precautions

When carrying or storing the battery holder with batteries loaded, be sure to

put it in the provided case.

Do not store the battery holder in places subject to high temperature (e.g. on

a car dashboard, near heating equipment, etc.).

When replacing the batteries, replace all batteries at the same time.
Do not mix old batteries with new ones.
Do not mix different brands or types of batteries.

Battery Precautions

Use the batteries correctly. Incorrect usage of batteries could cause leakage,

over-heating or other damage. When replacing batteries, make sure battery
polarity ( (+) and (-) terminals) is correct.

Never short-circuit, disassemble, recharge or throw the batteries into the fire.

This may cause fire or explosion.

Keep the batteries out of the reach of children. If a battery is swallowed by a

child, contact a doctor immediately.

Battery performance may drop temporarily in low temperatures. When using

batteries outside in cold weather, keep the batteries warm by carrying them
inside your clothes or in a bag or pocket. Even if performance has
deteriorated in the cold, the batteries will recover once they have been
returned to the normal temperature.

If grease or sweat gets on the (+) or (-) terminal, a contact failure may result.

Be sure to clean the terminals with a dry cloth before use.

It is recommended to have fresh spare batteries available when going on an

extended trip, especially when traveling abroad. Batteries may not be easily
available in some areas.

Pay attention to cautions printed on the battery.
When disposing of dead batteries, always observe the laws and regulations

regarding the disposable of such items.

When not using the camera for an extended period of time, be sure to remove

the batteries from the camera to avoid leakage. Store the batteries in a cool,
dry location (around 20°C with low humidity).
