Tips on Using Included Accessories

Effective Battery and Charger Use
• Charge the battery on (or immediately before) the
day of use
Charged batteries gradually lose their charge, even when
they are not used.
You can easily check the charge state of the battery by
attaching the cover so that  is visible on a charged
battery, and attaching it so that  is not visible on an
uncharged battery.
• Long-term battery storage
After using up all remaining battery power, remove the battery from the camera. Store
the battery with the cover attached. Storing a partially charged battery over extended
periods (about a year) may shorten its life or affect performance.
• Using the battery charger abroad
The charger can be used in areas with 100 – 240 V AC power (50/60 Hz). For power
outlets in a different format, use a commercially available adapter for the plug. Never
use an electrical transformer designed for traveling, which may damage the battery.
