Using The Battery Charger - Kodak DC290 User Manual

Using the Battery Charger

To ensure that you have a constant supply of freshly charged batteries, a battery
charger and four AA Ni-MH rechargeable batteries are provided. These batteries
need to be charged before using and take up to eight hours to fully charge. So that
you are always prepared to take pictures, it is a good idea to have one set of
rechargeable batteries in the camera, and an extra set charged, ready for use. You
can purchase additional KODAK Ni-MH Rechargeable Batteries as an accessory.
For details about available accessories, ask a dealer of KODAK products, or visit
our Website at http://www.kodak.com/go/accessories.
