Casio QV-R40 manual Getting Ready

GETTING READY

NOTE

•The charger unit is designed for operation on power ranging from 100V AC to 240V AC. Note, however, that the shape of the power plug varies according to country or geographic area. When traveling abroad, it is up to you to find out if the shape of the charger unit power plug is compatible with local power outlets and to purchase any required adapters.

3.The [CHARGE] lamp will go out when charging is complete.

4.After charging is complete, unplug the charger unit from the power outlet, and remove the batteries from it.

•Always unplug the charger unit from the power outlet and remove the batteries whenever you are not using it for charging.

IMPORTANT!

•If the [CHARGE] lamp starts to flash when you start a charge operation, it means that charging cannot be started yet because the surrounding temperature or

the temperature of the charger unit is outside the range of about 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F). Charging will start automatically (indicated when the [CHARGE] lamp stops flashing and remains lit) as soon as temperature returns to normal.

•Charging batteries while they are still warm immediately after removing them from the camera can result in only partial charging. Give batteries time to cool before charging them.

•Batteries discharge slightly even when they are left without loading them into the camera. Because of this, it is recommended that you charge batteries immediately before you need to use them.

•The rechargeable batteries used with this camera are specifically designed for use with digital cameras. If you want to try to use them to power another type of device, you should first check the user documentation that comes with the device to see if they are compatible.

•Though the actual service life of the rechargeable batteries depends on the environment under which they are used, you can expect to be able to recharge them about 500 times before they need replacement.
