zThis charger can be used only to charge Canon AA-size NiMH batteries NB-2AH. Please do not attempt to charge NB- 2AH batteries in any other type of charger.

zWhen recharging batteries from the camera, always recharge all four of them at the same time.

zDo not attempt to recharge fully charged batteries, as doing so may reduce or impair battery performance. Also, do not charge batteries for more than 24 consecutive hours.

zDo not recharge batteries in enclosed areas that tend to retain heat.

zRepeatedly recharging batteries before they become fully depleted may cause batteries to lose capacity. Do not recharge the batteries until the LCD monitor displays the “Change the batteries” message.

zWipe the battery terminals well with a dry cloth in the following situations, as the terminals may be soiled with oil from one’s skin or other dirt:

-If the battery usage time has considerably diminished
