■ Battery Handling Precautions
Misuse of batteries can cause them to leak or explode,
which damages and corrodes the area around the batteries
and creates the risk of fire and personal injury. Make sure
you observe the following precautions when using
batteries.
• When loading batteries, make sure their positive (+) and
negative (–) ends are facing correctly.
• Never mix new batteries with old ones.
• Never mix batteries of different brands.
• Use only the batteries that are specified for this camera.
• Never try to take batteries apart and always take care to
avoid conditions where their two ends can become
connected to each other (shorting). Never expose
batteries to heat or throw them into fire.
• Dead batteries are susceptible to leakage, which can
cause serious damage to your camera. Remove batteries
from the camera as soon as you notice they are dead.
• Remove batteries from the camera if you do not plan to
use it for more than two weeks.
• The batteries that power the camera normally become
warm as you use them.
■ Using Rechargeable Batteries
When using rechargeable batteries, be sure to use SANYO
Electric Co., Ltd. type HR-3UA or HR-3UB rechargeable
nickel metal hydride batteries to power this camera.
IMPORTANT!
• Never mix two batteries of different brands, ages, or
charge levels. Doing so creates the risk of shortened
battery life and can even damage the camera.
• Batteries cannot be recharged while they are loaded
in the camera.
