Canon A50 manual Do not charge the battery pack in poorly ventilated areas

•The battery pack requires approxi- mately 90 minutes to charge fully from a completely discharged state (as charged with Compact Power Adapter CA-PS100/100E according to standard Canon testing conditions).

•Charging times will vary with the ambient temperature and charge state of the battery pack.

•To protect and prolong the battery pack life, do not charge it longer than 24 hours at a time.

•Do not charge the battery pack in poorly ventilated areas.

•Remove the power cord from the outlet when charging is complete or the compact power adapter is not in use.

•Do not charge batteries other than Battery Pack NB-5H with the compact power adapter.

•The battery pack continues to discharge a minute amount while it is left in the camera, even if the camera is not used.

Since continual discharge will shorten the life of the battery pack, you should remove it from the camera when it is not in use and store it in the supplied case in a cool dry place. Remember to charge it fully before using it again.

•The battery pack capacity may diminish if it is repeatedly charged without first being fully discharged. It can be restored by fully charging and discharg- ing it several times.

•The service life of a battery pack has expired if its capacity to hold a charge diminishes severely despite several cycles of full charging and discharging. Replace the battery pack with a new one.
