Olympus lithium ion batteries are intended for use only with Olympus digital cameras. To
find out whether your camera can be used with these batteries, read your camera’s
manual.
Always charge lithium ion batteries when using them for the first time, or if they have not
been used for a long period.
The battery may become hot during prolonged use. To avoid minor burns, do not remove
it immediately after using the camera.
When operating the camera with battery power at low temperatures, try to keep the
camera and spare batteries as warm as possible. Batteries which run down at low
temperatures may be restored after they are warmed at room temperature.
Always unload the battery from the camera before storing the camera for a long period.
Before using a rechargeable battery, be sure to read the instructions.
The number of pictures you can take may vary depending on the shooting conditions or
battery.
Before going on a long trip, and especially before traveling abroad, purchase an ample
supply of extra batteries. A recommended battery may be difficult to obtain while
traveling.
Card handling precautions
The card is a precision electronic device. Do not bend it or subject it to impact and keep it
away from static electricity. The data stored on the card is saved in a nonvolatile
semiconductor memory, but it can be accidentally destroyed.
Do not expose the card to water or leave it where there is a lot of dust.
Avoid using or storing the card in places of high temperature and high humidity.
Avoid using near heat-generating or combustible materials.
Fingerprints or dirt on the card contacts may prevent correct reading/writing of data. Wipe
the contacts gently with a soft dry cloth.
The card is a consumable item. After long use, writing to the card and erasing of
data no longer becomes possible. When this happens, replace it with a new card.
Olympus is not responsible for any damage to data saved in other media or loss of
data stored on the card.
Caution for usage environment
To protect the high-precision technology contained in this product, never leave the
camera in the places listed below, no matter if in use or storage:
• Places where temperatures and/or humidity are high or go through extreme
changes. Direct sunlight, beaches, locked cars, or near other heat sources (stove,
radiator, etc.) or humidifiers.
• In sandy or dusty environments.
• Near flammable items or explosives.
• In wet places, such as bathrooms or in the rain. When using products with
weatherproof designs, read their manuals as well.
• In places prone to strong vibrations.
Never drop the camera or subject it to severe shocks or vibrations.
When mounted on a tripod, adjust the position of the camera with the tripod head. Do not
twist the camera.
