When you use the batteries, carefully read and strictly observe the Safety Instructions and the notes described below:

Avoid using the batteries in extremely cold environments as low temperatures can shorten the battery life and reduce digital video camera performance.
Fully charge and discharge batteries for one complete cycle prior to first use. Using new rechargeable batteries, or batteries which have not been used for a long time, without first charging/discharging may cause the battery life to be shorter than optimum.
The batteries may feel warm after long periods of continuous use of the camera or the flash. This is normal and not a malfunction.
The camera may feel warm after long period of continuous use. This is normal and not a malfunction.
If the batteries are not to be used for a long period of time, store them after the battery power has been drained. If the batteries are stored for a long time in a fully charged state, their performance may be impaired.
Always keep the battery terminals clean.
There is a risk of explosion if the batteries are replaced with an incorrect type.
Dispose of used batteries according to the recycling instructions.
Never use manganese batteries.
