Battery life

The battery life is limited. Battery capacity decreases little by little as you use it more and more, and as time passes. When the battery operating time seems to have been considerably shortened, a probable cause is that the battery has reached the end of its life.

The battery life varies depending on storage, operating conditions, and environment, and is different for each battery.

The battery charger

Do not charge any other batteries except the Sony nickel hydride battery using the supplied battery charger. If you charge other types of battery (manganese, alkaline, lithium, ni-cd batteries, etc.), this may cause leakage, explosion, or overheating of the battery, and personal scald or injury may be caused.

Do not recharge a fully charged nickel hydride battery. This may cause leakage, explosion, or overheating of the battery.

When charging a high capacity battery other than the supplied battery using the supplied battery charger, the full capacity of the battery may not be available.

When the CHARGE lamp flashes, the battery may cause a malfunction if an unspecified battery was inserted. First, verify that the battery is specified for use with the charger. If the battery is specified for use with the charger, remove all the batteries from the battery charger, insert other batteries, such as new ones, and check that the battery charger works properly. When the battery charger works properly, the batteries may be the cause of the malfunction.
