Battery (sold separately)
zDo not carry or store the battery pack with metal objects with sharp edges, such as paper clips and pins. Always put the terminal cover on the battery pack’s terminal when carrying it or before storing it.
zRemove the battery pack when the printer is not in use.
The battery pack continues to discharge a small amount when left in the printer even with the power turned off. This shortens the battery life.
zThe 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.
zAlthough the battery pack’s maximum operating range is 5 to 40 °C (41 to 104 °F), the optimal range is 10 to 30 °C (50 to 86 °F).
At cold temperatures, such as those experienced on ski hills, performance will temporarily decline, reducing the usable time.
zIf the battery status is low, the finished print may not be ejected into the print output receptacle completely.
If this happens, gently pull out the paper.
zWhen the printer is not in use, remove the battery pack, replace its terminal cover and store it in a cool place (30 °C/86 °F or less).
Charge it before using it again.
Charging the Battery (sold separately)zThis 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.
zIt 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 40 °C (41 to 104 °F).
•The charging time varies according to the ambient temperature and charge state.
•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.
zYou are advised to charge the battery on the day of use, or one day before, to ensure a full charge.
Even charged battery packs continue to discharge naturally.
zStoring 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.
zIf 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.
zIf the usable time of a battery pack diminishes substantially even when fully charged, it should be replaced.
