• Do not use batteries if their body is not covered by the insulating sheet or if the sheet is torn, as this may cause fluid leaks, fire, or injury. CAUTION • Do not remove batteries immediately after using the camera. Batteries may become hot during prolonged use. • Always unload the battery from the camera before storing the camera for a long period. • The following AA batteries cannot be used. Batteries whose bodies are only partially or not at all covered by an insulating sheet. Batteries whose - terminals are raised, but not covered by an insulating sheet. Batteries whose terminals are flat and not completely covered by an insulating sheet. (Such batteries cannot be used even if the - terminals are partially covered.) • If NiMH batteries are not charged within the specified time, stop charging them and do not use them. • Do not use a battery if it is cracked or broken. • If a battery leaks, becomes discolored or deformed, or becomes abnormal in any other way during operation, stop using the camera. • If a battery leaks fluid onto your clothing or skin, remove the clothing and flush the affected area with clean, running cold water immediately. If the fluid burns your skin, seek medical attention immediately. • Never subject batteries to strong shocks or continuous vibration. • Olympus NiMH batteries (included in some areas) are intended for use only with Olympus digital cameras. Never use these batteries with any other device. • Always charge NiMH batteries (included in some areas) before using them for the first time, or if they have not been used for a long period. • Always charge sets of batteries (included in some areas) (2 or 4) together. • Do not use alkaline batteries unless it is absolutely necessary. In some cases, alkaline batteries may have a shorter service life than NiMH battery packs. Alkaline battery performance is limited, especially at low temperatures. The use of NiMH batteries is recommended. • CR-V3 lithium battery packs and AA manganese (Zinc-Carbon) batteries cannot be used with this camera. • When operating the camera with battery power at low temperatures, try to keep the camera and spare batteries as warm as possible. Batteries which run down at low temperatures may be restored after they are warmed at room temperature. • Recommended temperature ranges for NiMH batteries: Operation 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F) Charge 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F) Storage 20°C to 30°C (- 4°F to 86°F) • Using, charging, or storing the batteries outside these ranges could shorten battery life or affect battery performance. Always unload the batteries from the camera before storing the camera for a long period. • Before using NiMH or NiCd batteries, always read the provided instructions. • The number of pictures you can take may vary depending on the shooting conditions or batteries. • Before going on a long trip, and especially before traveling abroad, purchase an ample supply of extra batteries. The recommended batteries may be difficult to obtain while traveling. Caution for Usage Environment Miscellaneous • To protect the high-precision technology contained in this product, never leave the camera in the places listed below, no matter if in use or storage: • Places where temperatures and/or humidity are high or go through extreme changes. Direct sunlight, beaches, locked cars, or near other heat sources (stove, radiator, etc.) or humidifiers. • In sandy or dusty environments. • Near flammable items or explosives. • In wet places, such as bathrooms or in the rain. When using products with weatherproof designs, read their manuals as well. • In places prone to strong vibrations. • Never drop the camera or subject it to severe shocks or vibrations. • When mounted on a tripod, adjust the position of the camera with the tripod head. Do not twist the camera. • Do not touch electric contacts on cameras. EN 65
