Using Rechargeable Batteries
(Battery and Charger Kit CBK4-300)
This kit includes a battery charger and four rechargeable AA-size
NiMH (nickel metal hydride) batteries. Charge batteries as shown
below. Recharging is also possible using two batteries.
• After inserting the batteries, plug the charger (CB-5AH) into an outlet,
or attach the power cord to the charger (CB-5AHE, not shown) and
plug the other end into an outlet.
• Do not insert and charge additional batteries once charging has
begun.
• The charge indicator blinks while charging, then remains lit when
charging is finished.
Using the Power Kits (Sold Separately)
z The CB-5AH/CB-5AHE battery charger can only be used to
charge Canon AA-size NiMH NB-3AH batteries.
z Do not mix batteries with different purchase dates or
different charge states. When recharging batteries, always
recharge both of them at the same time.
z Do not attempt to recharge fully charged batteries, as doing
so may reduce or impair battery performance. Also, do not
charge batteries for more than 24 consecutive hours.
z Do not recharge batteries in enclosed areas that tend to
retain heat.
z Do not recharge the batteries until the LCD monitor displays
the “Change the batteries” message. Repeatedly recharging
batteries before they become depleted may cause batteries
to lose capacity.
