Follow these guidelines to avoid damage to your printer or battery pack, and harm to you or others:
❏Before using a new battery pack, charge it as described later in this chapter.
❏Use only the Canon
❏Do not attempt to disassemble a battery pack or the battery case.
❏Follow local regulations when disposing of a used battery pack.
❏Do not dispose of a battery pack where it may come in contact with fire.
❏Keep foreign objects out of the battery compartment.
❏Do not allow metal objects to touch the power connector on the battery case or the terminals on the battery pack.
❏Make sure the paper support is closed when you are not using the printer. This turns off the battery switch.
❏Recharge the battery pack only when it is fully discharged. Charging it before it is fully discharged reduces the battery capacity.
❏Remove the battery pack when you are storing the printer.
