Charging the Battery Abroad

The battery charger supplied with the camera is designed to switch
automatically to the voltage (100-240V) and frequency (50Hz, 60Hz) of
the electricity supply in the country or region where used.
However, electrical socket shapes differ from country to country. Before
traveling abroad, you are advised to check the socket shape in the
country of your destination (see "Main Socket Types in the Major
Countries and Regions of the World" (p.24)) and take an appropriately
shaped adapter plug with you.
The socket shape does not affect the charging method.
• Use of an off-the-shelf transformer may lead to defective
operation.
• Unplug the adapter plug from the power outlet when the battery
charger is not in use.
