Power Supply and Battery

descriptions.
The following explains proper use of batteries and how to prolong
their life. Incorrect use of batteries can cause shorter battery life, as
well as leakage, excessive heat, fire or explosion.

When shipped, the battery is not fully charged. Always charge the
battery before using it.
*
When carrying the battery, install it in a digital camera or keep it
in the soft case.
• Battery Features
• The battery gradually loses its charge even when not used. Use
a battery that has been charged recently (in the last day or two)
to take pictures.
• To maximize the life of the battery, turn the camera off as quickly
as possible when it is not being used.
• The number of available frames will be lower in cold locations or
at low temperatures. Take along a spare fully charged battery.
You can also increase the amount of power produced by putting
the battery in your pocket or another warm place to heat it and
then loading it into the camera just before you take a picture.
If you are using a heating pad, take care not to place the battery
directly against the pad. The camera may not operate if you use
a depleted battery in cold conditions.
