Battery Lif

We recommend using only a Kodak EasyShare Li-Ion rechargeable battery. Not
all manufacturers’ 3.7V Li-Ion rechargeable batteries are compatible with the
camera. Damage caused by unauthorized accessories is not covered under
warranty.

Extending battery life

■ Limit the following activities that deplete battery power:

– Reviewing your pictures on the camera screen

– Excessive use of the flash

– Using the camera screen as a viewfinder

■ Dirt on the battery contacts can affect battery life. Wipe the contacts with a

clean, dry cloth before inserting a battery 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.
