EN-EL3e Batteries
The performance of EN-EL3e batteries drops at temperatures below about 10℃(50℉). Be sure the battery is fully charged and keep a warm spare battery on
hand ready to exchange as necessary. Cold batteries will recover some of their charge when warmed.
AA-Batteries
Due to their limited capacity, AA LR6 alkaline and ZR6 nickel-manganese batteries should be used only when no other alternative is available. Do not use at
low temperatures. In general, AA batteries have less capacity EN-EL3e batteries when used in the JBG-N008;EN-EL3e batteries are recommended for best
performance.
The capacity of AA batteries varies with make and storage conditions; in some cases, they may cease to function before their expiry date. Note that the
capacity of AA batteries drops sharply at temperatures below 20℃ (68℉)

1 Turn the battery-chamber latch on the back of the JBG-N008 to
2 Insert the batteries.
EN-EL3e: Insert the batteries as shown on the inside of the battery chamber cover. The battery latch will slide aside during insertion and pop up to lock the
battery in place when fully inserted (Figure G). If only one battery is used, it may be inserted into either slot.
AA: Place six AA batteries in the AA Battery magazine as shown below and slide the holder into the battery chamber. The two battery latches (Figure H-○,
will slide aside during insertion (Figure H-○,
3 Close and latch the battery-chamber cover (Figure l). Make sure the cover fully closed before turning the latch.
4 Turn the camera on and check the battery level in the control panel or viewfinder. If EN-EL3e batteries are used, battery level can also be verified by mean
of the Battery info option in the camera setup menu.
Using an AC Adapter
If the JBG-N008is inserted in the camera, be sure to remove AA batteries before connecting an AC adapter, Failure to observe this
precaution may shorten the life of AA batteries.
Use EN-EL3e batteries if possible. AA batteries have less capacity and suffer a marked drop in performance at low temperatures.
When using AA batteries, note that all six batteries must be of the same type.
Note that the JBG-N008 can also be inserted in the camera after the battery or battery holder is inserted.
