Never mix unused and partially used batter
ies. Always load two fresh (or fully recharged)
batteries at the same time.
Never mix batteries of different types or from
different manufactures. Both batteries should
be identical.
Before inserting the batteries, wipe the
battery terminals well with a dry cloth. Oil from
one’s skin or other dirt may cause a consid
erable reduction in the number of recordable
images or reduced usage time.
Before using the camera, wipe the 0 and 0
terminals in the camera well with a dry cloth.
Dirt may cause a bad electrical contact.
Battery performance deteriorates at low
temperatures (especially with alkaline
batteries). If you are using the camera in cold
areas and batteries are running down faster
than they should, you may be able to restore
performance by placing batteries in an inner
pocket to warm them up prior to use. But be
careful that you don’t put the batteries into a
pocket together with a metal key chain or
other metallic objects, as these objects may
cause batteries to short-circuit.
