ABOUT THE RECHARGEABLE BATTERY

A rechargeable nickel-metal hydride battery is the only kind that can be used. Even if the battery is not used, you should charge it at least once every three months because of the special quality of this battery.

The rechargeable battery can be charged approximately 300 times.

Do not use any battery other than that specified. Use of other batteries may cause malfunctions.

When the operating time is reduced to about half the normal amount of time, even after a full charge is performed, replace the battery with a new one.

When charging or when using the re

chargeable battery, use it within an am- bient temperature range of 5°C - 35°C (41°F - 95°F).

If the rechargeable battery is used in a cold environment, the operating time will be reduced.

Since the rechargeable battery is vulner- able to damage, please note the follow- ing.

Do not carry the battery in your pocket or a bag together with metal objects (keys, coins, jewelry, etc.). The battery may short out and generate significant amounts of heat.

Do not short-circuit the terminals as they will become very hot and will damage the battery.

Do not dip the battery in water, do not dis- pose of it in a fire, and do not take it apart.

When you want to carry the rechargeable battery, put it into the accessory case and fasten the flap on the case with velcro tab.

To avoid damaging the battery and shortening its service life, please note the following.

Do not drop or subject the battery to shock.

Do not insert objects (metal etc.) into the battery compartment of this product or into the rechargeable battery. Do not get the terminals dirty. If the rechargeable terminals are dirty, the operating time may be shortened or it may not be pos- sible to charge the battery.

After the rechargeable battery is charged or used, it will get slightly warm. This is normal.
