Lithium-ion Battery
* When shipped, the battery is not
fully charged. Always charge the
battery before using it.
* When carrying the battery, install
it in a digital camera or keep it in
the soft case.
Battery Features
• The battery gradually loses its
charge even when not used. Use
a batter y that has been charged
recently (in the last day or two) to
take pictures.
• To maximize the life of the battery,
turn the camera off as quickly as
possible when it is not being used.
• The number of available frames
will be lower in cold locations or
at low temperatures. Take along
a spare fully charged battery. You
can also increase the amount of
power produced by putting the
batter y in your pocket or another
warm place to heat it and then
loading it into the camera just
before you take a picture.
If you are using a heating pad,

take care not to place the battery
directly against the pad. The
camera may not operate if you
use a depleted battery in cold
conditions.
Charging the Battery
• You can charge the battery using
the battery charger (included).
• The battery can be charged at
ambient temperatures between
0°C and +40°C (+32°F and
+104°F). Refer to the OWNER’S
MANUAL for the time of
charging battery.
• You should charge the battery
at an ambient temperature
between +10°C and +35°C
(+50°F and +95°F). If you charge
the battery at a temperature
outside this range, charging
takes longer because the
performance of the battery is
impaired.
• You cannot charge the battery
at temperatures of 0°C (+32°F) or
below.
• The Rechargeable Lithium-ion
Batter y does not need to be fully
discharged or exhausted flat
before being charged.
• The battery may feel warm after it
has been charged or immediately
after being used. This is perfectly
normal.
• Do not recharge a fully charged
battery.
■
Battery Life
At normal temperatures, the battery
can be used at least 300 times.
If the time for which the battery
provides power shortens markedly,
this indicates that the battery has
reached the end of its effective life
and should be replaced.
Notes on storage
• If a battery is stored for long
periods while charged, the
performance of the battery can
be impaired. If the battery will not
be used for some time, run the
batter y out before storing it.
• If you do not intend to use the
camera for a long period of time,
remove the battery from the
camera.
• Store the battery in a cool place.
• The battery should be stored in
a dry location with an ambient
temperature between +15°C and
+25°C (+59°F and +77°F).
• Do not leave the battery in hot
or extremely cold places.

otherwise subject it to strong
impacts.
• Do not expose the batter y to
water.
• Always keep the battery terminals
clean.
• Do not store batteries in hot
places. Also, if you use the battery
for a long period, the camera body
and the battery itself will become
warm. This is normal. Use the AC
power adapter if you are taking
pictures or viewing images for a
long period of time.

Camera uses AA-size alkaline
or Ni-MH (nickelmetal hydride)
rechargeable batteries
* For details on the batteries that
you can use, refer to the OWNER’S
MANUAL of your camera.
Cautions for Using Battey
• Do not heat the batteries or throw
them into a fire.
• Do not carry or store batteries
with metal objects such as
necklaces or hairpins.
• Do not expose the batteries to
water, and keep batteries from
getting wet or stored in moist
locations.
• Do not attempt to take apart or
change the batteries, including
battery casings.
• Do not subject the batteries to
strong impacts.
■
vii
Notes and Cautions
• Do not use batteries that are
leaking, deformed, discolored.
• Do not store batteries in warm or
humid places.
• Keep the batteries out of reach of
babies and small children.
• Make sure that the battery polarity
(E and F) is correct.
• Do not use new with used
batteries. Do not use charged and
discharged batteries together.
• Do not use different types or
brands of batteries at the same
time.
• If you do not intend to use the
camera for a long period of time,
remove the batteries from the
camera. Note if the camera is left
with the batteries removed, the
time and date settings are cleared.
• The batteries feel warm right after
being used. Before removing the
batteries, turn the camera off
and wait for the batteries to cool
down.
• Since batteries do not work well in
cold weather or locations, warm
the batteries by placing them
inside your garments before use.
Batteries do not work well when
cold. They will work again when
the temperature returns to normal.
• Soil (such as fingerprints) on
the battery terminals makes the
batteries charge less reducing the
number of images. Carefully wipe
the battery terminals with a soft
dry cloth before loading.
If any liquid at all leaks from
the batteries, wipe the battery
compartment thoroughly and
then load new batteries.
If any battery fluid comes
into contact with your hands
or clothing, flush the area
thoroughly with water. Note
that battery fluid can cause
loss of eyesight if it gets into
your eyes. If this occurs, do
not rub your eyes. Flush the
fluid out with clean water and
contact your physician for
treatment.
Usin g the AA-siz e Ni-MH batt eries
correctly
• Ni-MH batteries left unused in
storage for long periods can
become “deactivated”. Also,
repeatedly charging Ni-MH
batteries that are only partially
discharged can cause them
to suffer from the “memory
effect”. Ni-MH batteries that
are “deactivated” or affected by
“memory” suffer from the problem
of only providing power for a
short time after being charged. To
prevent this problem, discharge
and recharge them several times
using the camera’s “Discharging
rechargeable batteries” function.
Deactivation and memory are
specific to Ni-MH batteries and are
not in fact battery faults.
See OWNER’S MANUAL for the
■
procedure for “Discharging
rechargeable batteries”.
CAUTION
Do not use the “Discharging
rechargeable batteries” function
when alkaline batteries being used.
• To charge Ni-MH batteries,
use the quick battery charger
(sold separately). Refer to the
instructions supplied with the
charger to make sure that the
charger is used correctly.
• Do not use the battery charger to
charge other batteries.
• Note that the batteries feel warm
after being charged.
• Due to the way the camera is
constructed, a small amount of
current is used even when the
camera is turned off. Note in
particular that leaving Ni-MH
batteries in the camera for a long
period will overdischarge the
batteries and may render them
unusable even after recharging.
• Ni-MH batteries will self-discharge
even when not used, and the time
for which they can be used may
be shortened as a result.
• Ni-MH batteries will deteriorate
rapidly if overdischarged (e.g.
by discharging the batteries in a
flashlight). Use the “Discharging
rechargeable batteries” function
provided in the camera to
discharge the batteries.
• Ni-MH batteries have a limited
service life. If a battery can only be
used for a short time even after
repeated discharge-charge cycles,
it may have reached the end of its
service life.
Disposing of Batteries
• When disposing of batteries, do
so in accordance with your local
waste disposal regulations.
