NOTES ON THE HANDLING
Batteries
• Battery performance decreases with lower operating temperatures. In a cold place, we recommend you to
prepare new batteries and keep the spare batteries in a warm place such as inside your coat.
As the performance of Ni-MH battery less decreases, we recommend you to use the Ni-MH battery in a
cold place. Even if the battery performance decreases due to a cold environment, the battery can recover
its power when the battery warms up.
• Remove the batteries when they are not in use for an extended period. The battery leakage may damage
the battery-chamber.
• Occasionally, when using alkaline batteries, the battery-condition indicator shows that the battery power is
low even if there is enough power capacity.
Continue to use the camera. The low-battery symbol will disappear.
• As the batteries heat up just after the camera is used, be careful when removing or replacing the batteries.
Turn off the power of the camera and allow the batteries to cool down.
