Caution:
• Modern electronic components react sensitively to electrostatic
discharge. As people can easily pick up charges of tens of
thousands of volts, by walking on synthetic carpets for example,
a discharge can occur when you touch your camera, particularly
if it is placed on a conductive surface. If only the camera housing
is affected, this discharge is harmless to the electronics.
However, despite built-in safety circuits, the outer contacts, such
Legal information
as those in the flash shoe, should not be touched if at all
possible for safety reasons.
• For any cleaning of the contacts, do not use an optical microfiber cloth (synthetic); use a cotton or linen cloth instead. Before
touching the contacts, you can make sure you discharge any
electrostatic charge by deliberately touching a heating or water
pipe (conductive, earthed material). You can also avoid soiling
and oxidization of the contacts by storing your camera in a dry
location with the lens cover and the flash shoe/viewfinder
socket cover fitted.
• You should use exclusively the recommended accessories to
prevent faults, short circuits or electric shock.
• Do not attempt to remove parts of the housing (covers);
specialist repairs can be carried out only at authorized service
centers.
Legal notice:
• Please ensure that you observe copyright laws. The recording
and publication of pre-recorded media such as tapes, CDs, or
other published or broadcast material may contravene copyright
laws.
• This also applies to all of the software supplied.

CHARGING THE BATTERY
The Leica T is powered by a Lithium ion battery. It can be charged
while inserted in the camera using the USB cable supplied or
outside the camera using the charger supplied.
Caution:
Preparations
• Only the battery type specified and described in this manual,
and/or battery types specified and described by Leica Camera
AG, may be used in this camera.
• This battery may only be used in the units for which it is
designed and may only be charged exactly as described.
• Using this battery contrary to the instructions and using non-
specified battery types can result in an explosion under certain
circumstances.
• Batteries may not be exposed to sunlight, heat, humidity or
condensation for long periods. To prevent a risk of fire or
explosion, batteries may not be placed in a microwave oven or a
pressurized container.
• Never throw batteries into a fire as this can cause them to
explode.
• Humid or wet batteries may not be charged or used in the
camera under any circumstances.
• Always ensure that the battery contacts are clean and freely
accessible.
• Whilst lithium ion batteries are proof against short circuits, they
should still be protected against contact with metal objects such
as paper clips or jewelry. A short-circuited battery can get very
hot and cause severe burns.
• If a battery is dropped, check the casing and the contacts
immediately for any damage. Using a damaged battery can
damage the camera.
• If the battery makes a noise, becomes discolored or deformed,
overheats or leaks any fluid, it must be removed from the
camera and replaced immediately. Continuing to use the battery
can result in overheating, leading to a risk of fire and/or
explosion.
• If any fluid is escaping or a burning smell occurs, keep batteries
away from sources of heat. Leaked fluid can catch fire.
• Only the charger specified and described in this manual, or other
chargers specified and described by Leica Camera AG, may be
used. The use of any other chargers not approved by Leica
Camera AG can cause damage to the battery and, in extreme
cases, serious or life-threatening injuries.
• The charger supplied should be used exclusively for charging this
battery type. Do not attempt to use it for other purposes.
• Ensure that the mains outlet used is freely accessible.
• Heat is generated during charging. Therefore, charging should
not be carried out in small, enclosed - i.e. unventilated - spaces.
• The battery and charger may not be opened. Repairs may only
be carried out by authorized workshops.
• Make sure that batteries are kept out of reach of children.
Swallowing batteries brings a risk of suffocation.
Dispose of used batteries in line with the information provided
in this manual.
124
First aid:
• If battery fluid comes into contact with the eyes, there is a risk
of blinding.
Wash the eyes thoroughly with clean water immediately. Do not
rub the eyes. Seek medical attention immediately.
• If leaked fluid gets onto the skin or clothing, there is a risk of
injury. Wash the affected areas with clean water.
Notes:
• The battery is supplied partially charged, but it should be
charged before long periods of use.
• In order to charge the battery, it must have a temperature of
between 0°C and 35°C / 32°F and 95°F (otherwise the
charger may not turn on or off again).
• Lithium ion batteries can be charged at any time, regardless of
their current charge level. If a battery is only partly discharged
when charging starts, it is charged to full capacity faster.
• Lithium ion batteries should only be stored in a partially charged
condition, i.e. not fully charged or fully discharged. For very long
storage periods, batteries should be charged for around 15
minutes around twice a year to prevent total discharge.
• The batteries warm up during the charging process. This is
normal and not a malfunction.
• A new battery only reaches its full capacity after it has been fully
charged and – by use in the camera – discharged 2 or 3 times.
This discharge procedure should be repeated every 25 cycles.
• Rechargeable lithium ion batteries generate power through
internal chemical reactions. These reactions are also influenced
by the external temperature and humidity. To ensure a maximum
service life of the battery, it should not be exposed to (high or
low) extremes of temperature (e.g. in a parked car in the
summer or winter).
• Even with optimum conditions of use, every battery has a limited
service life. After several hundred charging cycles, this becomes
noticeable as the operating times get significantly shorter.
• Take damaged batteries to an appropriate collection point for
proper recycling, in line with the applicable regulations (see p.
119).
• The replaceable battery supplies another back-up battery that is
integrated into the camera. This back-up battery ensures that
the date and time data entered is retained for up to 2 days. If
this back-up battery becomes discharged it must be recharged
by inserting a charged main battery. Once the replaceable
battery has been inserted, the full capacity of the back-up
battery is recovered after about 60 hours. This process does not
require the camera to be turned on. However, the date and time
will need to be entered again.
• Remove the battery if you will not be using the camera for a long
period of time. When doing so, turn the camera off using the
main switch first. Otherwise, after several weeks the battery
could become totally discharged, i.e. the voltage is sharply
reduced as the camera still consumes a small amount of current
(for saving your settings) even when it is turned off.

Notes:
• Do not open the compartment and do not remove the memory
card or the battery while the LED is lit to indicate that the
camera is accessing the memory. Otherwise, the data on the
card can be destroyed and the camera may malfunction.
• SD, SDHC and SDXC cards have a write protection switch, that
can be used to prevent unintentional storage and deletion of
pictures. This switch takes the form of a slider on the nonbeveled side of the card; in the lower position, marked LOCK,
the data is protected.
• If the memory card cannot be inserted, check that it is aligned
correctly.
• If a memory card is inserted, pictures are only saved on the
card. If no card is inserted, the camera stores image data in the
internal memory.
• The range of SD/SDHC/SDXC cards is too large for Leica
Camera AG to be able to completely test all available types for
compatibility and quality. Although no damage to the camera or
the card is generally expected, because some "no name" cards
may not fully comply with the SD/SDHC/SDXC standards Leica
Camera AG cannot provide any guarantee of function.
• As electromagnetic fields, electrostatic charge, and defects on
the camera or the card can lead to damage or loss of the data
on the memory card, we recommend that you also transfer the
data to a computer and save it there.

LENSES FOR THE LEICA T
All Leica T lenses essentially have the same external construction:
1.
Fig. 13
they have an external bayonet fi tting on the front mount for the
lens hood and an internal thread for fi lters, an adjusting dial for the
distance, a fi xed ring with a red index button for changing lens, and
a contact strip for transferring information and control signals.
Leica T Vario lenses also have an additional focal length setting dial
with its own index.
Note:

Preparations
Exposure measurement and control with Leica T Vario lenses
Leica T Vario lenses have a variable speed, i.e. the eff ective
aperture opening varies depending on the set focal length. To
prevent incorrect exposures, the desired focal length must be
determined before storing the measured value or changing the
speed/aperture combination. For further details, refer to the
sections under "Exposure metering and control" starting on p.
160.
When using additional, non-system compatible fl ash units, the
aperture setting on the fl ash unit must correspond to the actual
aperture.
Picture

Transport
position
Leica T lenses are supplied with optimized lens hoods. Thanks to
their symmetrical bayonet, they can be fi tted quickly and easily and
removed again for space-saving storage.
Lens hoods reduce stray light and refl ections, as well as preventing
damage and dirt on the front lens.

The setting dials - in this case both have the same
function - can be used to select individual options in submenus.
If you continue turning beyond the fi rst or last submenu option on
a page, the submenu list 'jumps' by a page, i.e. the next or
previous lines appear. This also applies to the start and end of the
submenu list (=> "endless loop").
Note:
The menu and submenu options can also be set at any time by
pressing the selected menu option itself or the
SET button that
appears in the toolbar on the right.
General comments on menu control
• Settings for options that diff er from the above explanations or
include additional steps, are described in the sections dealing
with the relevant options.
• Some options may not be available, e.g. because the relevant
functions have fi xed settings in the scene modes (see p. 167),
or because they relate to the external viewfi nder available as an
accessory and it is not fi tted. These options are then indicated
by a gray function icon (instead of white) and cannot be
selected.
• The menu is normally opened at the position of the last option
set.
