How
to
store the battery for long periods:
Deplete and remove the battery from the camera. Attach the terminal cover
and store the battery. Storing a battery for long periods
of
time (about a year)
without depleting it may shorten its life span or affect its performance.
The battery charger can also be used when abroad.
The charger can be used
in
regions that have 100 - 240 V (50/60 Hz)
AC
power.
If the plug does not fit the outlet, use a commercially available plug adapter.
Do
not use electrical transformers for foreign travel
as
they will cause damage.
The battery may develop a bulge.
This
is
a normal characteristic
of
the battery and does not indicate a problem.
However, if the battery bulges to the point where it will
no
longer fit into the
camera, please contact a Canon Customer Support Help Desk.
If the battery
is
quickly depleted even after charging,
it
has reached the
end of its life span.
Purchase a new battery.
