1-4 Getting Started
Handling Batteries
When your PhotoPC batteries wear out, you can replace them with any
of the following:
❙ Single-use AA alkaline batteries
❙ Single-use AA lithium batteries (longest battery life)
❙ Rechargeable AA Ni-Cad batteries (shortest battery life).
WARNING
To avoid the danger of fire or explosion, do not mix different types of
batteries. Do not allow the battery contacts to touch metal objects such
as coins or keys, which could short out the battery’s circuits.
Note the following when handling batteries:
❙ Do not use manganese batteries.
❙ Replace all four batteries at the same time.
❙ Do not drop, puncture, disassemble, or mutilate batteries. Do not
get them wet or expose them to fire.
❙ When the camera is not used for long periods of time, remove the
batteries and store them at a low temperature in a dry location.
❙ Dispose of used batteries according to the battery manufacturer’s
instructions and in compliance with all applicable laws. Contact
your local government agency for information about battery
recycling and disposal.
❙ If you use rechargeable Ni-Cad batteries, replace them with four
fully-charged batteries. If you find that your batteries run out faster
after you recharge them a number of times, make sure you
discharge them completely before recharging.
