Nikon FE2 - TIPS ON BATTERY USE; Battery Handling and Maintenance

TIPS
ON BATTERY
USE
.
Keep
batteries
away from
infants
and
small
children.
In
case a
battery
is
accidentally
swallowed,
call
a doctor
immediately
as
the
material
inside
the
batteries
can cause
serious
oroblems.
r
Battery
power
falls
off in
extremely
cold temperatures
and
this
may
cause
the
camera's
photometric
circuit
to cease
operating.
In this
situation,
use new
batteries
and
protect
the
camera
body from
the
cold. Note
that
battery
power
will
be
recovered
as
soon as
the temperature
becomes
normat.
.Should
the
battery
be left in
the
battery
chamber
for
a
long
period,
insufficient
contact
may
occur
due to
battery
leakage.
Thus,
it
is
good
practice
to
periodically
clean
the
battery and
the
contact
section in
the
battery
chamber
with
a
soft cloth. lf
the
battery
chamber
is
contaminated
with
a
leaking
battery, remove
the
battery
at once
and
clean
the
chamber.
r
lf
you're
using a
pair
of
batteries,
change
them at the
same
time; never
mix
new
and old
batteries
or batteries
of
different
brands.
oWhen
not
using the
camera for
a
long
period,
take
bat-
teries
out
and store them
in
a cool,
dry
place.
o
Never
disassemble
batteries
or
discard them
in
a
f ire.
.Always
check
battery
power
before
the
shooting
session
because
battery
power
can become
exhausted
without
warning.
lt
is
a
good
idea
to have
spare
batteries
on hand
during a lengthy
shooting
assignment.
o
In
normal
use,
a
battery's
lifespan
is
about
one
year.
The
battery
packed
with
this camera,
however,
is for
test
our-
poses
only so its lifespan
may
be
shorter than
usual.
o
Regardless
of
whether
the
camera
is
switched
off
or
not,
the
FE2
always
discharges
a
small amount
of
electricity,
because it incorporates
a
quartz
oscillator
circuit.
