Condensation
When using the camera outdoors during
very cold weather, condensation can
form on the camera and lens when you
return to a warm place.
When condensation has taken place:
Turn the camera off and leave the
camera in this condition for about
2 hours. When the camera becomes
close to the ambient temperature, the
condensation disappears naturally.
ª
Optimal Use of the Batteries
The AA Ni-MH (nickel-metal hydride)
batteries are rechargeable. The
AA Alkaline batteries cannot be
recharged.
Their abilities to generate power are
based upon the chemical reaction that
takes place inside them. This reaction is
susceptible to the surrounding
temperature and humidity, and, if the
temperature is too high or too low, the
operating time of the batteries will be
shorter.
If you drop the batteries accidentally,
check to see if the battery body and
terminals are deformed.
Inserting deformed battery to the
camera may damage the camera.
Be sure to remove the batteries after
use.
If they are left inserted to the camera, a
minute amount of current is consumed
even when the camera is turned off. If
the batteries are left inserted in the
camera for a long time, discharge takes
place. The batteries may become
unusable even after they are charged.
Dispose of unusable batteries.
• The batteries have a limited life.
• Do not throw the batteries into fire
because they may cause an explosion.
• An unusable battery should be
discarded in accordance with battery
recycling laws.
For information you can call the RBRC
hotline at 1-800-822-8837.

card and the batteries.

Batteries
• Do not leave the camera and the
batteries in a place where the
temperature is too high, such as inside
a car during the summer.
• Extremely high or low temperatures
will shorten the life of the batteries.
• If the batteries are kept in smoky or
dusty places, the terminals may rust
and cause malfunctions.
• Do not allow the battery terminals to
come in contact with metal objects
(such as necklaces, hairpins, etc.).
This can result in a short circuit or heat
generation and, if you touch the
battery in this condition, you may be
badly burned.
• Store the batteries in a completely
discharged state. To store the
rechargeable batteries for a long
period of time, we recommend
charging them once every year and
storing them again after you
completely use up the charged
capacity.
