Notes on Handling Batteries

hIt is recommended that you use the same brand of alkaline batteries as those supplied with the camera.

h Never use a battery when the outer casing is split or peeling as this could result in a short-circuit and cause major problems due to battery fluid leakage or overheating.

hDo not use different types of batteries or old and new batteries together.

hYou cannot use lithium, manganese or nickel- cadmium (Ni-Cd) batteries.

hThe operating lives of alkaline batteries vary between brands and the life of batteries you purchase may be shorter than the alkaline batteries provided with the camera. Note also that due to the nature of alkaline batteries, the time for which they can be used is shorter in cold locations (at temperatures of +10°C (+50°F) or below). Consequently, Ni-MH batteries are recommended.

hSoiling (fingerprints, etc) on the terminals of batteries can greatly reduce the time for which the batteries provide power.

hYou will need the optional charger (P.98) to recharge Ni-MH batteries.

hSee P.101 for notes on using batteries.
