batteries transmit information on their remaining capacity to the camera.

camera display. For Gold Mount batteries, the user does not need to set the
battery warning level due to the communication of camera and battery.
Attaching the battery to the adapter
 Place the battery with the three pins into the adapter so that the pins

 Move the battery to the right until you hear a snap.
 Make sure it is connected correctly and sits tight.
Releasing the battery
 When facing the battery, move the lever located on the left side of the
mount down.
 Move the battery left, then pull it towards you and remove it.
