Notes on Battery Usage
Carefully read and strictly observe the Safety Instructions and the notes described below:
Different battery types and surrounding temperatures may affect the battery performance.
Avoid using the battery in extremely cold environments as low temperatures can shorten the battery life and reduce camera performance.
The battery may feel warm after long periods of continuous use of the camera or the flash. This is normal and not a malfunction.
If the battery is not to be used for long periods of time, store it after the battery power has been drained. If the battery is stored for a long time in a fully charged state, its performance may be impaired.
Always keep the battery terminals clean.
There is a risk of explosion if the battery is replaced with an incorrect type. Dispose of used battery according to the instructions.
Charge the rechargeable battery fully before the first use.
To prevent short-circuiting or fire, keep the battery away from other metal objects when carrying or storing.
Do not dispose of battery in a fire. Risk of explosion.
