Notes on the Battery (NP-95)
This camera uses the Rechargeable Lithium-ion Battery
NP-95. Note the points below when using the
rechargeable battery. Take particular care to read the
Safety Notes to make sure that you use the battery
correctly.
When shipped, the NP-95 is not fully charged. Always
*
charge the NP-95 before using it.
• When carrying the NP-95, install it in a digital camera.
Z Battery Features
• The NP-95 gradually loses its charge even when not
used. Use a NP-95 that has been charged recently (in
the last day or two) to take pictures.
• To maximize the life of the NP-95, turn the camera off
as quickly as possible when it is not being used.
• The number of available frames will be lower in cold
locations or at low temperatures. Take along a spare
fully charged NP-95.
You can also increase the amount of power produced
by putting the NP-95 in your pocket or another warm
place to heat it and then loading it into the camera just
before you take a picture.
If you are using a heating pad, take care not to place the
NP-95 directly against the pad. The camera may not
operate if you use a depleted NP-95 in cold conditions.

Z Charging the Battery
• You can charge the battery using the camera and the
AC power adapter (included).
• The NP-95 can be charged at ambient temperatures
between 0°C and +40°C (+32°F and +104°F). At an
ambient temperature of +23°C (+73°F), it takes
approx. 4 hours to charge a fully depleted NP-95
battery.
• You should charge the NP-95 at an ambient
temperature between +10°C and +35°C (+50°F and
+95°F). If you charge the NP-95 at a temperature
outside this range, charging takes longer because the
performance of the NP-95 is impaired.
• You cannot charge the NP-95 at temperatures of 0°C
(+32°F) or below.
• You can also use the optional Battery Charger BC-65S
to charge the NP-95. When charging, use the NP-95
battery adapter supplied with the BC-65S (Refer to the
Owner's Manual for details).
• The NP-95 can be charged using the BC-65S Battery
Charger at ambient temperatures between 0°C and
+40°C (+32°F and +104°F). At an ambient
temperature of +23°C (+73°F), it takes approx. 210
minutes to charge a fully depleted NP-95 battery.
• You should charge the NP-95 at an ambient
temperature between +10°C and +35°C (+50°F and
+95°F). If you charge the NP-95 at a temperature
outside this range, charging takes longer because the
performance of the NP-95 is impaired.
• The NP-95 does not need to be fully discharged or
exhausted flat before being charged.
• The NP-95 may feel warm after it has been charged or
immediately after being used. This is perfectly normal.
• Do not recharge a fully charged NP-95.
