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

œIf 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.

B Do not allow the battery pack to come into contact with fresh or salt water, or allow the terminals to become wet.

œIf 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.

B Cautions regarding the correct environment for using and storing the battery pack

œTemperature when using or recharging: 0 to 40°C

Do 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 temperature reaches 60°C or higher).

At 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.

Avoid storing the battery pack with it near full charge. It is recommended to store the battery pack when it is near fully discharged.

If 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.

œStorage temperature: –10°C to 30°C

When not using the battery pack, remove it from the camera and store at

–10°C to 30°C in a place with no condensation.

œHumidity: 10% to 90% (no condensation)
