RECHARGEABLE BATTERY SPECIFICATION

LI-ION/ BATTERY CHARGER 3053573 BCX-1

– PRECAUTIONS and GENERAL

The battery should be charged for approximately 6 hours before first time use.

The battery must be charged at room temperature.

Maximum battery capacity is reached only after the battery has been charged and discharged several times.

Avoid frequent full discharges (a full discharge is signalled by the appearance of the Replace battery warning). As the battery is a Li-ion type, it has no ‘memory effect’ of practical importance and therefore frequent recharges will cause no problems

such as loss of capacity or poor performance. It is therefore better policy to recharge the battery at very regular intervals, regardless of use.

Remove the battery if you intend to store the camera for some while as it will eventually become completely drained, even though the camera is turned off. Mount the Battery Protection Cover when storing the Battery.

The battery has an integrated ‘fuel gauge’ capability that supports the Replace battery and Battery status functions. As with most Li-ion batteries, this capability should be occasionally calibrated, depending on how much the battery is used. To do this, leave the camera on (or use it), until the Replace battery warning appears. Then, recharge the battery for 6 hours. This will improve the accuracy of the measurements.

When removing a battery from the charger and immediately replacing it with another, allow a few seconds to elapse so that the charger can automatically reset for the next charging procedure.

It is perfectly normal for the battery to become warm when being charged.

A slight temporary loss of battery performance might be noticed at very high or low temperatures. Take the appropriate measures if this is the case.

If you do not intend to use the battery for a while, it is best to store it at room temperature with an approximate 30 to 40% charge. You can check the percentage level on the status screen.

The battery should have a usable service life of around 400 recharge/discharge cycles.

Connect the battery to the camera correctly.

Keep the Battery Protection Cover in place when not in use. (Short circuiting across keys in a pocket, for example, could cause a risk of fire).

Do not immerse the battery in liquids.

Do not incinerate the battery.

Please recycle or discard in an environmentally approved manner.

Use indoors only (protect against moisture).

Do not short circuit the jack plug.

Do not alter the charger in any way other than changing the plug attachment.

Note!

You can save battery consumption by changing the Display Off

/Power Off settings as well as the Brightness settings of the display.
