Battery Options If you forget to charge your rechargeable NiMH batteries or if they need to be replaced, the PhotoPC 850Z camera can also accept the following:  Rechargeable AA NiCad batteries  Single-use AA lithium batteries (longer life, Energizer® recommended)  Single-use AA alkaline batteries WARNING To avoid the danger of fire or explosion, do not mix different types of batteries. Do not allow the battery contacts to touch metal objects such as coins or keys, which could short out the battery. Read all safety and handling instructions before using batteries. Note the following when handling batteries:  Use only the EPSON battery charger (Model EU-38) to charge the batteries that came with your camera.  Use the batteries that came with your camera only in EPSON digital cameras.  Do not use manganese batteries.  Do not mix different types of batteries; this can cause fire or explosion.  Replace all four batteries at the same time. Do not mix old and new batteries.  Batteries that have not been used for a long time do not charge well. However, with regular use, the batteries will return to normal.  Batteries discharge at least 2% per day, whether they are used or not.  If the batteries are charged in a hot environment, or if they are charged repeatedly without being discharged, they will wear out more quickly. 1-6 Setting Up Your Camera and Software
