Battery Handling Precautions

Incorrect use or handling of batteries can cause them to leak
or burst and create the danger of serious damage to your
camera. Be sure to note the following important precautions
to avoid problems with batteries.
• Use only LR6 (AM-3) type alkaline or FR6 type
lithium or Ni-MH (nickel-metal hydride) dry cell
batteries with this camera. Never mix old bat-
teries with new ones. Doing so can result in
bursting or leaking of batteries, creating the
danger of fire or personal injury.
• Always make sure that the plus (+) and minus
CAUTION
(–) ends of the batteries are facing correctly, as
noted by the markings on the camera itself.
Improper loading of batteries can result in
bursting or leaking of batteries, creating the
danger of personal injury or soiling of objects
nearby.
• Remove batteries from the camera if you do not plan to use
it for more than two weeks.
• Never recharge batteries, never allow direct connection
between two ends of a battery, and never try to take batter-
ies apart.
• Do not expose batteries to direct heat or dispose of them
by burning. Doing so can create the danger of explosion.
• Never mix batteries of different types.
GETTING ACQUAINTED
• Dead batteries are susceptible to leakage, which can
cause serious damage to your camera. Remove batteries
from the camera as soon as you notice they are dead.
• The batteries that power the camera normally become
warm as they discharge.
