• Batteries that have “flattened” ends that would prevent a proper connection from
being made with internal battery contacts.

Proper Care and Handling of the Batteries
If you mishandle the batteries, leakage, generation of heat and fire or
explosion may occur. Observe the following cautions;
• Do not attempt to disassemble the battery or subject the battery to any extreme
mechanical abuse.
• Do not heat or throw into the fire.
• Do not allow the battery contacts to touch metal objects.
• Do not subject the battery, battery connectors, or the camera to any direct
moisture, especially salt water. This can cause corrosion of the metal surfaces.
• Do not peel off or remove the outer battery covering.
• Do not throw the batteries.
•
Do not use batteries that appear mechanically damaged, swollen or show signs of leakage.
• Do not store batteries in high humidity or high temperature environments.
• Keep batteries away from small children.
•
Do not install batteries backwards (reverse polarity). Serious damage or injury can result.
• When you replace 2 batteries, use two of the same type.
• All batteries should be of the same brand, size, capacity. Avoid mixing batteries.
• If you will not be using the camera for a long time, remove the batteries.
• Following prolonged use, it is normal for the battery to be warm.
• As the ambient temperature decreases, the battery capacity and performance will
decrease. This is normal. In such cases, remove the batteries and warm them in
your pocket. Take special care not to allow the contacts to come into contact with
