CHARGING THE BATTERY

The Leica Q is powered by a lithium ion battery.
Caution:
• Only the battery types specifi ed and described in this manual
and/or specifi ed and described by Leica Camera AG may be
used in this camera.
• These batteries may only be used in the units for which they are
designed and may only be charged exactly as described below.
• Using the battery contrary to these instructions and using
battery types not specifi ed in these instructions may result in an
explosion.
• The batteries must not be exposed to sunlight, heat, humidity, or
condensation for long periods. To prevent a risk of fi re or
explosion, batteries must not be placed in a microwave oven or
in a high-pressure vessel.
• Never throw batteries into a fi re, as this can cause them to
explode!
• Damp or wet batteries must not be charged or used in the
camera under any circumstances.
• Always ensure that the battery contacts are clean and freely
accessible. Whilst lithium ion batteries are proofed against short
circuits, they should still be protected against contact with metal
objects such as paper clips or jewelry. A short-circuited battery
can get very hot and cause severe burns.
