Warning
Batteries with any part of the outer seal (magnetic insulation sheath) peeled off, or any battery split
along the seam, can leak, generate heat, or explode. Never use damaged batteries in the camera.
Store-bought batteries occasionally may be defective, with all or part of the magnetic insulation
sheath peeled off. Never use batteries in this condition.
These batteries cannot be used:
1
The negative electrode
(minus terminal) is flat and
only partially covered by the
seal (electrical insulation
sheath).
The negative electrode (the
minus surface) is flat and not
covered by the seal.
All of the seal (electrical
insulation sheath) is peeled
off (bare batteries).
Batteries with all or part of
the electrical insulation
sheath peeled off.
Part of the negative electrode
is protruding although not
covered by the seal.
You may notice a gap after
loading the AA (R6)
batteries into the holder, but
this is normal. The batteries
will make proper contact
when the holder has been
inserted into the camera.
