1-4 Getting Started
Using Rechargeable NiMH Batteries
Your PhotoPC 800 comes with a charger and four
rechargeable NiMH batteries that can be recharged hundreds
of times. While you use two batteries in your camera, you
can keep a replacement set of batteries charged and ready to
take along.
NOTE
New batteries need to be fully charged three times before you
use them. This process takes approximately five or six hours—
but you only need to do it once. When you need to recharge your
batteries in the future, it takes approximately two and a half hours
for a full charge.
Charging Batteries
It’s important to fully charge your batteries, so they will last
as long as possible before they need recharging.
WARNING
Shock hazard. Make sure you use the charger only with EPSON
rechargeable NiMH batteries (model EU-24). To avoid the danger
of leakage or explosion, do not place any other batteries in the
charger. Read all safety and handling instructions in the
Introduction of this guide before using the charger.
Follow these steps to charge your batteries for the first time:
1
Insert two or four batteries, positioning the + and – ends
as shown.
