Precautions

1.

2.  Only use with batteries and battery holders 

recommended in this manual.

cap when the BG-C1 is not in use. This prevents 
electrical shorts caused by metal objects touching 
the power terminals.

grip, remove the batteries or place the holder in 
a container to prevent electrical shorts caused by 
contact with other metal objects.

If you notice smoke, an unusual smell or noise from 
the battery pack, discontinue use immediately. 

Remove the batteries and take the device to a Vello 
authorized reseller.

6.  Turn the grip power off  when not shooting 

vertically.

7.  The battery level may not display properly if 

batteries are inserted before mounting the grip.

8. 

Remove batteries from the grip when not in use. 

9. 

Do not attempt to disassemble.

10.   Avoid water or extreme humidity and keep in a 

dry and cool place. 

11.   Keep out of reach of children.
