How to Use the Battery Pack

Maintaining the Battery Pack

The battery pack should be recharged in an environment of between 32°F(0°C) and 104°F(40°C).

The battery pack should never be charged in a room temperature that is below 32°F(0°C).

The life and capacity of the battery pack will be reduced if it is used in temperatures below 32°F(0°C) or left in temperatures above 104°F(40°C) for a long period.

Do not put the battery pack near any heat sources (fire or flames, for example).

Do not disassemble, process, press or heat the battery pack.

Do not allow the + and - terminals of the battery pack to be short-circuited. It may cause leakage, heat generation, induce fire and overheating.

It is recommended that you use the original Samsung battery pack that is available at the retailer where you purchased the Sports Camcorder.

In case of notable reduction in operating time, contact your nearest Samsung service centre to replace the exhausted battery pack.
