Using the battery and charger effectively
•
Charge the battery on the day, or the day before, it will be used.
Charged batteries continue to discharge naturally even if they are not used.
•
How to store the battery for long periods.
Deplete and remove the battery from the camera. Attach the terminal cover and
store the battery. Storing a battery without depleting it for long periods of time
(about one year) may shorten its life span or affect its performance.
•
The battery charger can also be used when abroad.
The charger can be used in regions that have 100 – 240 V (50/60 Hz) AC
power. If the plug does not fit the outlet, use a commercially available plug
adapter. Do not use devices such as electrical transformers for foreign travel
because they will cause malfunctions.
•
If the battery is quickly depleted even after charging, it has reached the end of its
life span.
