•When the battery pack is used to power the printer, the printer will automatically turn off if it is idle for 5 minutes or more.
•This is a lithium ion battery pack so there is no need to completely use or discharge it before recharging. It can be charged at any charge state.
•It takes approximately 150 minutes to bring a fully discharged battery pack to a full charge state (based on standard Canon testing criteria).
•Charge it within a temperature range of 5 to 40oC (41 to 104oF).
•The charge adapter may emit noises while charging. This is not a malfunction.
•Do not charge the battery pack for more than 24 continuous hours to avoid performance loss.
•When the printer is not in use, remove the battery pack, replace its terminal cover and store it in a cool place (30oC/86oF or less).Charge it before using it again.
•Even charged battery packs continue to discharge naturally. You are advised to charge the battery on the day of use, or one day before, to ensure a full charge.
•Since storing a fully charged battery pack for long periods of time (about 1 year) can shorten its lifecycle or affect performance, you are recommended to discharge the battery pack fully in the printer before storing it in a cool place (30oC/86oF or less). If you do not use the battery pack for long periods of time, charge it fully and discharge it fully in the printer at least once a year before returning it to storage.
•The printer consumes the battery charge when the power is on even when a function is not being used. To conserve the battery charge, be particularly attentive in turning the power off.
•Although the battery pack’s maximum operating range is 5 to 40oC (41 to 104oF), the optimal range is 10 to 30oC (50 to 86oF). At cold temperatures, such as those experienced on ski hills, performance will temporarily decline, reducing the usable time.
•If the usable time of a battery pack diminishes substantially even when fully charged, it should be replaced.
•Remove the battery pack when the printer is not in use. The battery pack continues to discharge a small amount when left in the printer or charge adapter even with the power turned off. This shortens the battery life.
