Nikon FG-20 - Tips on Battery Use

TIPS ON BATTERY USE------------
• Keep batteries away from infants and small chil-
dren.
In case a battery is accidentally swallowed,
call a doctor immediately
as the material inside the
batteries may
be fatal.
• Battery power falls off
in extremely cold temper-
atures
and this may cause the camera to cease to
operate.
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 normal.
• When not using the camera for a long period of
time, take the batteries out and store them
in a cool
(below 20°C), dry place. Should the batteries
be
left in the battery chamber for a long period of time,
insufficient contact may occur due to battery con-
tamination. Thus,
it is good practice to periodically
clean the batteries and the contact section
in the
battery chamber with a soft cloth. If the battery
chamber
is stained by a leaking battery, remove
the batteries at once and clean the chamber.
• Never mix new and old batteries or batteries of
different makes.
• Always check battery power before every shooting
session. It
is a good idea to have spare batteries on
hand during a lengthy shooting assignment.
• Never disassemble batteries or dispose of them by
burning.
