Based on new size-AA alkarine batteries and Canon's testing standards.
Since the shape of their contacts is not standardized, using non-alkaline
size-AA batteries may result in faulty battery connection.
Use four new batteries of the same brand and type. Do not mix battery
types. When replacing batteries, replace all four batteries at the same time.
Size-AA Ni-MH or lithium batteries can also be used.
