The Setup Menu

PDISCHARGE (Ni-MH Batteries Only)

The capacity of rechargeable Ni-MH batteries may be temporarily reduced when new, after long periods of disuse, or if they are repeatedly recharged before being fully discharged. Capacity can be increased by repeatedly discharging the batteries using the PDISCHARGE option and recharging them in a battery charger (sold separately). Do not use PDISCHARGE with non-rechargeable batteries, and note that the batteries will not discharge if the camera is powered by an optional AC power adapter and DC coupler.

1 Selecting PDISCHARGE displays a confirmation dialog. Press MENU/ OK.

2 Select OK.

3 Press MENU/OK to begin discharging the batteries. When the batteries are fully discharged, the battery level indicator will blink red and the camera will turn off. To cancel the process before the batteries are fully discharged, press DISP/BACK.
