On “InfoLITHIUM” battery pack

What is the “InfoLITHIUM” battery pack?

The “InfoLITHIUM” battery pack is a lithium-ion battery pack that has functions for communicating information related to operating conditions of your camera.

The “InfoLITHIUM” battery pack calculates the power consumption according to the operating conditions of your camera, and displays the remaining battery time in minutes.

Charging the battery pack

We recommend charging the battery pack in an ambient temperature of between 10°C to 30°C (50° F to 86° F). You may not be able to efficiently charge the battery pack outside of this temperature range.

Effective use of the battery pack

•Battery performance decreases in low- temperature surroundings. So, the time that the battery pack can be used is shorter in cold places. We recommend the following to ensure longer battery pack use:

–Put the battery pack in a pocket close to your body to warm it up, and insert it in your camera immediately before you start shooting.

•Frequently operating the zoom or flash wears out the battery charge faster.

•We recommend having spare battery packs handy for two or three times the expected shooting time, and making trial shots before taking the actual shots.

•Do not expose the battery pack to water. The battery pack is not water-resistant.

Remaining battery time indicator

The power may go off although the battery remaining indicator shows there is enough power to operate. Use the battery pack up and charge the battery pack fully again so that the indication on the battery remaining indicator is correct. Note, however, that the correct battery indication sometimes will not be restored if the camera is used in high temperatures for a long time or left in a fully charged state, or the battery pack is frequently used.
