About “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 between your camera and the AC power adaptor.

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

Be sure to charge the battery pack before you start using your camera.

We recommend charging the battery pack in an ambient temperature of

between 10°C to 30°C (50°F to 86°F) until the /CHG lamp goes out, indicating that the battery pack is fully charged. If you charge the battery pack outside of this temperature range, you may not be able to efficiently charge the battery pack.

After charging is completed, either disconnect the AC power adaptor from the DC IN jack on your camera or remove the battery pack.

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 use the battery pack longer:

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 taking shots.

Frequently operating the zoom wears out the battery pack faster.

Be certain to turn the POWER switch to off when not taking shots or playing back on your camera.

We recommend having spare batteries handy for two or three times the expected shooting time, and make a 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

If the power goes off although the battery remaining indicator indicates that the battery pack has enough power to operate, 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 it is used in high temperatures for a long time or left in a fully charged state, or the battery pack is frequently used. Regard the remaining battery time indication as the approximate shooting time.
