i Do not drop, hit, or submit the battery pack to strong shocks

e If the safety mechanisms and protective devices are

broken, an abnormal chemical reaction may occur inside the battery pack, or cause the battery pack to catch fire, explode, leak or spew battery fluid, or generate heat.

i Do not allow the battery pack to come into con- tact with fresh or salt water, or allow the termi- nals to become wet.

eIf the safety mechanisms and protective devices are damaged by corrosion, an abnormal chemical reaction may occur inside the battery pack, or cause the battery pack to catch fire, explode, leak or spew battery fluid, or generate heat.

iOperating and storage conditions

eTemperature when using or recharging: 0 to 40°C

eDo not use, recharge, store or leave the battery pack near fire or inside a car exposed to the hot sun, etc. (locations in which the tem- perature reaches 60°C or higher).

eAt high temperatures, the safety mechanisms and protective devices inside the battery pack may be damaged by corrosion, causing an abnormal chemical reaction to occur, or cause the battery pack to catch fire, explode, leak or spew battery fluid, or generate heat. If the safety mechanisms and protective devices are damaged, the battery pack will become unusable. An environment with extremely high or

low temperatures will cause the battery capacity to deteriorate and shorten the usable time, and may even shorten the battery life.

eAvoid storing the battery pack with it near full charge. It is recom-

mended to store the battery pack when it is near fully discharged.

eIf the battery pack is completely discharged, it may become unable to be recharged again. To avoid this, charge the battery pack for at least five minutes every six months.

eStorage temperature: –10°C to 30°C

When not using the battery pack, remove it from the camera and store at 0°C to 30°C in a place with no condensation.

eHumidity: 10% to 90% (no condensation)
