About rechargeable batteries

• Use only the nickel-metal hydride batteries (NP-H3) that are

available from your dealer as options for this camera. Proper
camera operation is not guaranteed when other rechargeable
batteries are used.

• Be sure to keep all four batteries together as a set at all times,

for both charging and powering the camera. Mixing batteries
from different sets can shorten overall battery life and cause
malfunction of the camera.

• Rechargeable batteries cannot be charged while they are

loaded in the camera.

Battery Handling Precautions

Incorrect use or handling of batteries can cause them to leak
or burst and create the danger of serious damage to your
camera. Be sure to note the following important precautions
to avoid problems with batteries.

• Remove batteries from the camera if you do not plan to use

it for more than two weeks.

• Never recharge batteries, never allow direct connection

between two ends of a battery, and never try to take batter-
ies apart.

• Do not expose batteries to direct heat or dispose of them

by burning. Doing so can create the danger of explosion.

• Never mix batteries of different types.

• Use only LR6 (AM-3) type alkaline or FR6 type

lithium or Ni-MH (nickel-metal hydride) dry cell
batteries with this camera. Never mix old bat-
teries with new ones. Doing so can result in
bursting or leaking of batteries, creating the
danger of fire or personal injury.

• Always make sure that the plus (+) and minus

(–) ends of the batteries are facing correctly, as
noted by the markings on the camera itself.
Improper loading of batteries can result in
bursting or leaking of batteries, creating the
danger of personal injury or soiling of objects
nearby.
