Preface Handling the Battery This camera uses a special rechargeable lithium-ion battery. It is referred to simply as "battery" in this manual. Do not use a different battery. When you use the battery, carefully read and observe the "Safety Precautions" ( p.8) and the notes described below. * The battery included with the camera does not come fully charged. Be sure to fully charge the battery before using the camera for the first time. About Battery Use • The battery gradually discharges even when not used. Charge the battery one or two days before use. • To maximize the battery life, switch the camera OFF as often as possible when it is not being used. • In cold locations, the length of time the camera is operable decreases even with a fully charged battery. Take along a spare fully charged battery. • Always keep the terminals clean. • If the battery is used for a long time, the battery itself will become warm. This is normal and not a malfunction. • The battery has a limited service life. The length of service life varies depending on product use and user settings. At normal temperatures (77°F (25°C)), the battery can be recharged approximately 300 times. If you use the battery beyond its service life, you may notice that battery life becomes remarkably shorter, even if the battery is fully charged. If you notice that battery life has become remarkably shorter, even when the battery pack is fully charged, it is recommended that you replace the battery pack with battery model number GSC-BT5. When not Using the Battery for a Long Time • When the battery is not in use for a lengthy period of time, be sure to remove it from the camera body. If the battery is left attached to the camera body or battery charger, a minute current will flow even if the power is turned OFF. This will result in over discharge and the battery may no longer be useable. • Store the battery in a cool place. We recommend a dry place with a surrounding temperature of 59°F (15°C) to 77°F (25°C). Avoid storing the battery in extremely hot or cold places. 19

Handling the Battery
This camera uses a special rechargeable lithium-ion battery. It is referred to simply as
“battery” in this manual. Do not use a different battery.
When you use the battery, carefully read and observe the “Safety Precautions”
(
p.8) and the notes described below.
* The battery included with the camera does not come fully charged. Be sure to fully
charge the battery before using the camera for the first time.
About Battery Use
•
The battery gradually discharges even when not used. Charge the battery one or two
days before use.
•
To maximize the battery life, switch the camera OFF as often as possible when it is not
being used.
•
In cold locations, the length of time the camera is operable decreases even with a fully
charged battery.
Take along a spare fully charged battery.
•
Always keep the terminals clean.
•
If the battery is used for a long time, the battery itself will become warm. This is normal
and not a malfunction.
•
The battery has a limited service life. The length of service life varies depending on
product use and user settings. At normal temperatures (77°F (25°C)), the battery can
be recharged approximately 300 times. If you use the battery beyond its service life, you
may notice that battery life becomes remarkably shorter, even if the battery is fully
charged. If you notice that battery life has become remarkably shorter, even when the
battery pack is fully charged, it is recommended that you replace the battery pack with
battery model number GSC-BT5.
When not Using the Battery for a Long Time
•
When the battery is not in use for a lengthy period of time, be sure to remove it from the
camera body. If the battery is left attached to the camera body or battery charger, a
minute current will flow even if the power is turned OFF. This will result in over
discharge and the battery may no longer be useable.
•
Store the battery in a cool place. We recommend a dry place with a surrounding
temperature of 59°F (15°C) to 77°F (25°C). Avoid storing the battery in extremely hot
or cold places.
