PRECAUTIONS FOR BATTERY USAGE • Use two 3V lithium batteries (CR2 type). • Misuse of the battery can cause hazards such as leakage, overheating, explosion, etc. The battery should be inserted with the " I " and "-" sides facing correctly. • Battery performance may be temporarily hindered in low temperatures, but will recover in normal temperatures. • Keep a spare battery on hand for replacement convenience when shooting outdoors or while traveling. • If the built-in flash is used continuously, the battery may become warm, but it does not mean that the battery is faulty; it is one of the battery's characteristics. • Replace the batteries at the same time.
