Observe proper precautions when handling batteries

Batteries may leak or explode if improperly handled. Observe the following
precautions when handling batteries for use in this product:
• Be sure the product is off before replacing the battery. If you are using an AC

adapter, be sure it is unplugged.

battery.

backwards.

• Do not short or disassemble the battery.
• Do not expose the battery to flame or to excessive heat.
• Do not immerse in or expose to water.

extended period, the battery may become hot. Before removing the battery,
turn the camera off and allow the battery to cool.

become noticeably warm, but this does not indicate a malfunction.

such as discoloration or deformation.
