The Battery and Charger
Read and follow the warnings and cautions on pages ii–iii and 127–128 of this manual, together with any
warnings and instructions provided by the battery manufacturer. Use only EN-EL3e batteries. The D80
is not compatible with the MS-D70 CR2 battery holder or with EN-EL3 or EN-EL3a batteries for D100,
D70-series, or D50 cameras.
Do not use the battery at ambient temperatures below 0 °C (32 °F) or above 40 °C (104 °F). During
charging, the temperature should be in the vicinity of 5–35 °C (41–95 °F). For best results, charge the
battery at temperatures above 20 °C (68 °F). Battery capacity may drop if the battery is used at a tem-
perature below the temperature at which it was charged. If the battery is charged at a temperature be-
low 5 °C (41 °F), the battery life indicator in the Battery Info display may show a temporary decrease.
Removing the Battery
Turn the camera off before removing the battery. To avoid shorting the battery, replace the terminal
cover when the battery is not in use.
