•To protect the battery pack 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 pack, see “Number of Shots/Recording Time, Playback Time” (=129).

•Charged battery packs gradually lose their charge, even when they are not used. Charge the battery pack 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 pack.
