•AA alkaline, AA lithium, AA nickel manganese and CR-V3 batteries are not rechargeable.

•Do not open the battery cover or remove the batteries when the camera is turned on.

•If you do not intend to use the camera for a long time, remove the batteries, otherwise the batteries may leak.

•The “Battery depleted” error message may appear when you turn on the power after purchasing the camera or after replacing the batteries if the batteries had been removed for a long time. However, this is not an error. Wait a short period and then turn the power switch on again, the power should come on normally. If this happens, the date and time, recorded pixels and other settings may be initialized, reset the various settings according to the procedures in “Setting the Shooting Functions” (p.68 to 83) and “Camera Settings” (p.118 to 131).
