TIPS ON BATTERY USE
• Keep batteries away from infants and small children. In
case a battery is accidentally swallowed, call a doctor
immediately as the material inside the batteries can cause
serious problems.
•Battery power falls off in extremely cold temperatures and
this may cause the camera’s photometric circuit to cease
operating. In this situation, use new batteries and protect
the camera body from the cold. Note that battery power
will be recovered as soon as the temperature becomes
normal.
•Should the battery be left in the battery chamber for a long
period, insufficient contact may occur due to battery
leakage. Thus, it is good practice to periodically clean the
battery and the contact section in the battery chamber with
a soft cloth. If the battery chamber is contaminated with
a leaking battery, remove the battery at once and clean
the chamber.
• If you’re using a pair of batteries, change them at the same
time; never mix new and old batteries or batteries of
different brands.
• When not using the camera for a long period, take bat
teries out and store them in a cool, dry place.
• Never disassemble batteries or discard them in a fire.
•Always check battery power before the shooting session
because battery power can become exhausted without
warning. It is a good idea to have spare batteries on hand
during a lengthy shooting assignment.
• In normal use, a battery’s lifespan is about one year. The
battery packed with this camera, however, is for test pur
poses only so its lifespan may be shorter than usual.
• Regardless of whether the camera is switched off or not,
the FE2 always discharges a small amount of electricity,
because it incorporates a quartz oscillator circuit.
