Setting the Battery Type
When a type of battery different from that selected in the menu setting is used,
the battery level will not be correctly determined. Please set the correct battery
type. Usually, there is no problem using automatic detection. However in low
temperatures and when using batteries that were stored for long periods of
time, set the appropriate battery type so the camera can correctly determine
the remaining battery level.
