3. LOADING AND CHECKING THE BATTERY

Choosing the Right Battery
You can Us any one of the following batteries but be sure to use a new
battery.
6-volt silver oxide battery (4SR44).
6-volt alkaline manganese battery (4LR44).
6-volt lithium battery.
* Special precautions for the use of batteries in cold weather
1. Generally, the battery performance will
decrease rapidly at temperatures below 0
Degrees C. If you are shooting in sub-zero
weather, it is always best to use a new
battery. If the temperature is extremely
low, it is advisable to keep a spare
battery on hand and use the camera battery
and this spare battery in turns while
warming them up with your body heat.
1. Remove the Battery Compartment Cover by pushing the Cover Lock in
toward the Lens with your fingernail and lifting it up.
Notes: 1. One new silver-oxide battery or lithium battery will normally
last about 8 months, and one new alkaline-manganese battery about 6
months.
2. Before loading, wipe both ends of the battery clean with a dry piece of
cloth.
2. Silver oxide batteries are
well suited for shooting in
cold weather. They are also
recommended for taking a large
number of pictures.
