Battery Handling Precautions
This camera uses a lithium ion battery specified by
Olympus. Do not use any other type of battery.
If the battery’s terminals get wet or greasy, camera
contact failure may result. Wipe the battery well
with a dry cloth before use.
Always charge a battery when using it for the first
time, or if it has not been used for a long period.
When operating the camera with battery power
at low temperatures, try to keep the camera and
spare battery as warm as possible. A battery that
has run down at low temperatures may be restored
after it is warmed at room temperature.
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 extra batteries. A
recommended battery may be difficult to obtain
while traveling.
Please recycle batteries to help save our planet’s
resources. When you throw away dead batteries,
be sure to cover their terminals and always
observe local laws and regulations.
