Using batteries correctly • Incorrect usage of batteries causes such hazards as leakage, heating or explosions. Polarity markings should be carefully checked while inserting batteries. If either battery is erroneously inserted, unexpected mishap may occur. • The battery discharges small amounts of energy even when not in use. Therefore, the batteries supplied with your camera may be slightly below full capacity, as it has taken some time to reach you. • Replace both batteries at the same time. Do not mix battery brands and types, or old batteries with new batteries. • Battery life is approximately six months for alkaline and approximately one year for silver or lithium batteries. • When not using the camera for long periods of time, you should remove batteries from the camera. Old batteries are apt to leak and damage the battery compartment. Always keep batteries out of the reach of children. • Never break, recharge, or throw used batteries into fire as a precaution against explosions. • Batteries should be kept warm in cold climates to prevent lowering of performance. • Keep spare batteries on hand for convenience in photographing outdoors or while travel ing, etc. • When keeping the camera in a bag or case, lock the shutter release button to avoid the unnecessary consumption of battery power that may result from accidentally releasing the shutter. • 12
