How to store the battery pack

Fully discharge the battery pack before storing and store the camera in a cool, dry place. To maintain the battery pack’s function, charge the battery pack and then fully discharge it in the camera at least once a year while storing.

To use the battery pack up, leave the camera in slideshow playback mode until the power goes off. To prevent staining the terminal, short-circuiting, etc., be sure to use a plastic bag, etc. to keep away from metal materials when carrying or storing.

On battery life

The battery life is limited. Battery capacity decreases over time and through repeated use. If the available time of the battery is shortened significantly, it is probably time to replace it with a new one. The battery life varies according to how it is stored and the operating conditions and environment in which each battery pack is used.

Compatible battery pack

The NP-BX1 (supplied) can be used only in X type compatible Cyber-shot models.
