First Steps
Replacing Batteries
Turn the camera off before removing or inserting batteries. To remove the battery,
open the battery-chamber cover as described in Step 2, above, and slide the battery
out. Note that the battery may become hot during use; observe due caution when
removing the battery.
Read Battery Warnings
Read and follow the battery warnings and cautions on pages ii–iii and 140 of
this manual, together with any warnings and instructions supplied by the bat-
tery manufacturer.
Alternative Power Sources
To power the camera continuously for extended periods, use an EH-53 AC adapter
(available separately;
137). Do not, under any circumstances, use another make
or model of AC adapter. Failure to observe this precaution could result in overheating
or in damage to the camera.
