• To protect the battery and keep it in optimal condition, do not charge it continuously for more than 24 hours.

• For battery chargers that use a power cord, do not attach the charger or cord to other objects. Doing so could result in malfunction or damage to the product.

• For details on charging time and the number of shots and recording time possible with a fully charged battery, see “Number of Shots/Recording Time, Playback Time” (=104).

• Charged batteries gradually lose their charge, even when they are not used. Charge the battery on (or immediately before) the day of use.

• The charger can be used in areas with 100 – 240 V AC power (50/60 Hz).

 

 

For power outlets in a different format, use a commercially available adapter

 

 

for the plug. Never use an electrical transformer designed for traveling, which

 

 

may damage the battery.
