Note
• After charging is completed, be sure to disconnect the power supply device from the electrical
outlet.
• The battery becomes warm after using it and during and after charging. The camera also
becomes warm during use. This is not a malfunction.
• The battery will be exhausted if left for a long period of time after being charged.
• The battery can be recharged even when it still has some charge left, but it is not recommended
that the battery charge be frequently topped up while the battery is fully charged. (The battery
has characteristics that will reduce its operating duration and cause the battery to swell up.)
• When the operating time of the camera becomes extremely short even after properly charging
the battery, the life of the battery may have expired. Buy a new battery.
• Do not leave any metal items (such as clips) near the contact areas of the power plug.
Otherwise, a fire and/or electric shocks may be caused by short-circuiting or the
resulting heat generated.
