Caring for the Camera

CThe Battery

After purchasing replacement rechargeable batteries, charge them before use. They are not fully charged at the time of purchase.

Be sure to read and follow the information found in “Optional Accessories” (A129) and in the documentation included with the Battery Charger MH-73 (available separately).

Check the battery level when taking the camera out, and replace the batteries if necessary (A20). If possible, carry spare batteries when taking pictures on important occasions.

Battery capacity tends to decrease on cold days. Be sure that the batteries are fresh before heading outside to take pictures in cold weather. Keep spare batteries in a warm place and exchange as necessary. Once warmed, a cold battery may recover some of its charge.

Dirt on the battery terminals can prevent the camera from functioning.

Used batteries are a valuable resource. Please recycle used batteries in accordance with local regulations.
