Battery and charger

zUse the single Olympus lithium-ion battery (BLS-1). Other batteries cannot be used.

zThe camera’s power consumption varies widely with usage and other conditions.

•Performing auto focus repeatedly by pressing the shutter button halfway in shooting mode.

•Using live view.

•Displaying images on the LCD monitor for a prolonged period.

•When connected to a computer or printer.

zThe normal charging time of the provided rechargeable battery is approximately 3 hours 30 minutes (estimated).

zDo not use chargers other than the one designated.

Using your charger abroad

zThe charger can be used in most home electrical sources within the range of 100 V to 240 V AC (50/60Hz) around the world. However, depending on the country or area you are in, the AC wall outlet may be shaped differently and the charger may require a plug adapter to match the wall outlet. For details, ask at your local electrical shop or travel agent.

zDo not use commercially available travel adaptors as the charger may malfunction.
