Notes on the Battery
Notes on the Battery
The battery gradually loses its charge when not in
use. Charge the battery one or two days before use.
Battery life can be extended by turning the cam-
era off when not in use.
Battery capacity decreases at low temperatures;
a depleted battery may not function when cold.
Keep a fully charged spare battery in a warm
place and exchange as necessary, or keep the
battery in your pocket or other warm place and
insert it in the camera only when shooting. Do
not place the battery in direct contact with hand
warmers or other heating devices.

Charging the Battery
Charging the Battery
Charge the battery in the supplied battery char-
ger. Charging times will increase at ambient tem-
peratures below +10 °C (+50 °F) or above +35 °C
(+95 °F). Do not attempt to charge the battery at
temperatures above 40 °C (+104 °F); at temperatures
below 0 °C (+32 °F), the battery will not charge.
Do not attempt to recharge a fully charged bat-
tery. The battery does not however need to be
fully discharged before charging.
The battery may be warm to the touch immedi-
ately after charging or use. This is normal.

Battery Life
Battery Life
At normal temperatures, the battery can be re-
charged about 300 times. A noticeable decrease
in the length of time the battery will hold a
charge indicates that it has reached the end of its
service life and should be replaced.
