AUsing AA Batteries
The capacity of AA batteries drops sharply at temperatures below 20 °C (68 °F) and varies
with make and storage conditions; in some cases, batteries may cease to function before
their expiry date.
Some AA batteries can not be used; due to their performance
characteristics and limited capacity, alkaline batteries have less capacity than some other
types and should only be used if no alternative is available and then only at warmer
temperatures.
The camera shows the level of AA batteries as follows:
