Common Sense Camera Care and Practice
Batteries Care
1.The sealed, new battery which is supplied with this camera may have been subject to storage conditions which have reduced its service life. Therefore it is desirable to replace it with a fresh battery as soon as possible.
2.Carefully wipe the battery contacts before inserting into the chamber. Failure to do so may result in poor electrical contact and consequent malfunctioning of the camera.
3.Always remove battery when camera is not used for a while. Always carry spare batteries.
4.Battery life differs, depending on type, age, storage condition, ambient temperature, frequency of use etc.
5.Be sure to match the poles of the battery with those shown in the diagram in the chamber.
6 Always keep batteries out of the reach of children and never throw used batteries into a fire or expose to excessive heat.
7.When going on trips be sure to carry spare batteries to ensure that the camera will function. Also, as batteries tend to temporarily malfunction at temperatures below freezing, when photographing in extremely cold climates, carry the External Battery Case.
8.When you carry spare batteries, leave them in the original factory packaging. If they are "unpackaged", be sure to wrap them carefully in order to prevent them touching each other or any metal objects which can cause them to short circuit and become useless.
