Battery Handling Precautions

Incorrect use or handling of batteries can cause them to leak or burst and create the danger of serious damage to your camera. Be sure to note the following important precautions to avoid problems with batteries.

•Use only LR6 (AM-3) type alkaline or FR6 type lithium or Ni-MH (nickel-metal hydride) dry cell batteries with this camera. Never mix old bat-

	teries with new ones. Doing so can result in
	bursting or leaking of batteries, creating the
	danger of fire or personal injury.
CAUTION	• Always make sure that the plus (+) and minus

(–)ends of the batteries are facing correctly, as noted by the markings on the camera itself. Improper loading of batteries can result in bursting or leaking of batteries, creating the danger of personal injury or soiling of objects nearby.

•Remove batteries from the camera if you do not plan to use it for more than two weeks.

•Never recharge batteries, never allow direct connection between two ends of a battery, and never try to take batter- ies apart.

•Do not expose batteries to direct heat or dispose of them by burning. Doing so can create the danger of explosion.

•Never mix batteries of different types.
