Charging an exhausted battery
Turning the camera on or off while an exhausted battery is inserted in the camera may
result in reduced battery life. Charge the exhausted battery before use.
Storing the battery
•
Always remove the battery from the camera or optional battery charger when it is
not being used. Minute amounts of current are drawn from the battery while it is in
the camera, even when not in use. This may result in excessive battery drain and
complete loss of function.
•
Charging a used battery within six months is recommended. When storing the
battery for long periods, recharge it at least once every six months and use the
camera until the battery level indicator is
U
before returning it to storage.
•
Put the battery in a plastic bag, etc. in order to insulate it and store it in a cool place.
The battery should be stored in a dry location with an ambient temperature of 15°C
to 25°C (59°F to 77°F). Do not store the battery in hot or extremely cold locations.
Battery life
A marked drop in the time a fully charged battery retains its charge, when used at
room temperature, indicates that the battery needs to be replaced. Purchase a new
battery.
Recycling used batteries
Recycle rechargeable batteries in accord with local regulations, being sure to first
insulate the terminals with tape.
