If any battery fluid comes into contact with your hands or
clothing, flush the area thoroughly with water. Note that
battery fluid can cause loss of eyesight if it gets into your
eyes. If this occurs, do not rub your eyes. Flush the fluid out
with clean water and contact your physician for treatment.

Notes on Small Rechargeable Batteries (AA-size
Ni-MH batteries)
h Always use the special battery charger to charge AA-size
Ni-MH batteries. Charge the batteries as described in the
instructions provided with the battery charger.
h Do not use the battery charger to charge batteries other
than those specified for use with the charger.
h Note that the batteries may feel warm immediately after
being charged.
h AA-size Ni-MH batteries are not charged at shipment. Be
sure to charge the batteries before using them.
h The camera mechanism is such that it draws a minute
amount of current even when the camera is switched off.
Take particular care not to leave AA-size Ni-MH batteries
in the camera for a long period of time as they can
become excessively discharged and may no longer be
usable even when charged.
106 h AA-size Ni-MH battery self-discharge even when not
used. Always charge AA-size Ni-MH batteries before using
them. If the time for which batteries provide power shortens
markedly when they have been correctly charged, this
indicates that the batteries have reached the end of them
effective life and should be replaced.
h Soil (fingerprints, etc) on the terminals of AA-size Ni-MH
batteries can greatly reduce the number of available
shots. When this occurs, clean the terminals carefully
with a soft dry cloth. Then use up the remaining charge in
the batteries and recharge them.
h Newly purchased batteries or batteries that have been
left unused for an extended period may not be fully
charged. (This is indicated by the immediate display of
the battery low warning or a low number of available
shots.) This is a normal characteristic of the batteries and
does not indicate a fault. Repeatedly charging and using
the batteries 3 or 4 times will restore them to a normal
condition.
h If you repeatedly charge a AA-size Ni-MH batteries
before it is fully discharged, it will suffer from the "memory
✽
effect" , causing the battery low warning to appear while
there is still ample charge remaining in the batteries. To
restore the batteries to their normal condition, use up all
the charge in the batteries before recharging them.
✽ Memory effect: A phenomenon affecting the battery
characteristics such that the apparent
battery capacity decreases.
