● BATTERY STORAGE PRECAUTIONS
• Make sure you remove the battery from the camera
when you do not plan to use it for a long time. A battery
left in the camera discharges very small amounts of
power even when power is turned off, which can lead to
a dead battery or the need for longer charging before
the next use.
• Store the battery in a cool, dry place (20°C (68°F) or
lower).
● USING THE BATTERY
• When transporting a battery, keep it either loaded in
the camera or stored in its case.
■ Battery Charger Precautions
• Never plug the battery charger into an outlet whose
voltage rating is different from that marked on the
battery charger. Doing so creates the risk of fire,
malfunction, and electric shock.
• Never plug in or unplug the battery charger while your
hands are wet. Doing so creates the risk of electric
shock.
• Do not plug the battery charger into an outlet or
extension cord that is shared by other devices. Doing
so creates the risk of fire, malfunction, and electric
shock.
• The battery charger becomes slightly warm during
charging. This is normal and does not indicate
malfunction.
• Unplug the battery charger from the power outlet
whenever you are not using it.
• Always make sure that the battery charger is on a level
surface when using it for charging.
