Extending Battery Life
mLimit the following activities that quickly deplete battery power:
–Reviewing your pictures on the camera screen (see page 37)
–Using Liveview (see page 20)
–Using Quickview (see page 21 and page 34).
–Excessive use of the flash
mPurchase an optional Kodak
mPurchase an optional Kodak EasyShare camera dock II (see page 61). The camera dock II powers your camera, transfers pictures, and is a battery charger for its included Kodak EasyShare
mPurchase an optional Kodak EasyShare printer dock 4000 (see page 61). The printer dock 4000 powers your camera, makes 4 x 6 prints with or without a computer, transfers pictures, and is also a battery charger for its included Kodak EasyShare
mDirt on the battery contacts can affect battery life. Wipe the contacts with a clean, dry cloth before loading batteries in the camera.
mBattery performance is reduced at temperatures below 41° F (5° C). Carry spare batteries when using your camera in cold weather, and keep them warm. Do not discard cold batteries that do not work; when they return to room temperature, they may be usable.
Battery Safety and Handling
mDo not allow batteries to touch metal objects, including coins. Otherwise, a battery may short circuit, discharge energy, become hot, or leak.
