Appendix
Extending battery life
■ Limit the following activities that quickly deplete battery power:
– Reviewing your pictures on the camera screen (see page 8)
– Using the camera LCD screen as a viewfinder (see page 5)
– Excessive use of the flash (see page 23)
■ Dirt on the battery contacts can affect battery life. Wipe the contacts with a clean,
dry cloth before loading batteries in the camera.
■ Battery performance is reduced at temperatures below 41°F (5°C). When using
your camera in cold weather, carry spare batteries and keep them warm. Do not
discard cold batteries that do not work; when they return to room temperature,
they may be usable.
