·The
temperature
of
some parts
of
the
battery may
become
elevated
during
charging. Maintaining
contact
with
the
battery for
prolonged
periods
could
re-
sult in
low-temperature
burns.
•
You
may
notice
that
the
battery
is
hot
directly after use
or
charging; this does
not
indicate a malfunction.
•
In
cold conditions,
the
battery may re-
quire frequent charging even
when
ful-
ly charged. It
is
recommended
that
you
keep a fully-charged spare battery in a
warm
place and exchange
as
necessary
when
taking pictures in cold weather.
• A marked
drop
in
the
time
a fully-
charged battery retains its charge,
when
used at
room
temperature, indicates
that
the
battery needs
to
be replaced.
Purchase a
new
EN-EL20
battery.
