TIPS ON BATTERY USE

• Keep batteries away from infants and small children. In

case a battery is accidentally swallowed, call a doctor

immediately as the material inside the batteries can cause

serious problems.

• Battery power falls off in extremely cold temperatures and

this may cause the camera’s photometeric circuit to mal

function. In this situation, use new batteries and protect

the camera body from the cold. Note that battery power

will be recovered as soon as the temperature becomes

normal.

• Should the battery be left In the battery chamber for a long

period, insufficient contact may occur due to battery

leakage. Thus, it is good practice to periodically clean the

battery and the contact section In the battery chamber

with a soft cloth. If the battery chamber Is stained with a

leaking battery, remove the battery at once and clean

the chamber.

• If you're using a pair of batteries, change them at the same

time; never mix new and old batteries.

• When not using the camera for a long period, take bat

teries out and store them in a cool, dry place.

• Never disassemble batteries or discard them in fire.

• When using a pair of batteries, make sure they are of the

same make.

• Always check battery power before the shoofing session

because battery power can become exhausted without

warning. It is a good idea to have spare batteries on hand

during a protracted shooting assignment.

• In normal use, a battery's lifespan is about one year. The

battery packed with this camera, however, is for test pur

poses only so its lifespan may be shorter than usual.
