œ Ambient temperature during use or°Ccharging: 0 to 40

Do not use, recharge, store, or leave near an open flame, in a car under the hot sun, or in any other hot location (60°C or higher).

Extreme heat will damage the safety mechanisms and protective devices and cause a chemical reaction within the battery pack that may cause a fire, rupturing of the battery pack, eruption or leakage of electrolyte, or overheating. If the safety mechanisms and protective devices are damaged, the battery pack will become unusable.

If subject to extremely hot or cold conditions, the capacity of the battery pack will decrease and its usable life will be shortened. Use in ambient temperatures of 20±5°C is recommended. Ambient temperatures below 10°C will cause the operation time to become drastically shortened.

œ Ambient temperature during– 20 tostorage:30°C

When storing the battery pack, remove it from the device, insert it into its protective cover, and store it in a location between –20°C and 30°C.

œAmbient humidity: 45 to 85% RH

œ If recharged using a different charger, an excessive charging condition or abnormal electrical currents may result and cause a chemical reaction within the battery

pack. This may cause a fire, rupturing of the battery pack, eruption or leakage of electrolyte, or overheating.

œ When inserting the battery pack in the AC adapter/charger or digital disk camera, make sure the positive (+) and negative (–) terminals are oriented correctly as indicated.

œIf the battery pack is used or charged with the polarity of the terminals reversed, an abnormal chemical reaction will occur during charging and an abnormal current will flow during use. Both may cause a fire, rupturing of the battery pack, eruption or leakage of electrolyte, or overheating.
