GETTING READY

BATTERY STORAGE PRECAUTIONS

Make sure you remove the battery when you do not plan to use the camera for a long time. A battery left in the camera discharges very small amounts of power even when power is turned off, which can lead to a dead battery or the need for longer charging before the next use.

Store the battery in a cool, dry place (20°C (68°F) or lower).

USING THE BATTERY

See page 28 of this manual or the instructions that come with the optional charger unit for information about charging procedures and charging times.

When transporting a battery, keep it either loaded in the camera or stored in its case.
