Handling Batteries
If you need to replace your rechargeable NiMH batteries, the
camera can also accept the following:
◗
Rechargeable AA NiCad batteries
◗
Single-use AA alkaline batteries (Energizer
brand
recommended)
◗
Single-use AA lithium batteries (longer life)
WARNING
To avoid the danger of fire or explosion, do not mix different
types of batteries. Do not allow the battery contacts to touch
metal objects such as coins or keys, which could short out the
battery’s circuits. Read all safety and handling instructions before
using batteries.
Note the following when handling batteries:
◗
Use only the EPSON battery charger (Model EU-23) to
charge the batteries that came with your camera.
Pour usage avec le chargeur de piles modele EU-23.
◗
Use the batteries that came with your camera only in
EPSON digital cameras.
◗
Do not use manganese batteries.
◗
Replace all four batteries at the same time.
◗
Batteries that have not been used for a long time do not
charge well. However, with regular use, the batteries will
return to normal.
◗
Batteries discharge 2% per day, whether they are used or
not.
◗
If the batteries are not fully discharged before you charge
them, your camera’s operating time may decrease
temporarily.
◗
If the batteries are charged in a hot environment, or if
they are charged repeatedly without being discharged,
they will wear out more quickly.
◗
Do not drop, puncture, disassemble, or mutilate
batteries. Do not get them wet or expose them to fire.
