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 problems.
• Battery power falls off
in
extremely cold temperatures and
this may cause the camera's photometeric circuit to mal-
function.
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.
• 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. If the battery chamber
is
stained with a
leaking battery, remove the battery at once and clean
the chamber.
• If you're using a pair of batteries, change them at the same
time; never mix new and old batteries.
• When not using the camera for a long period, take bat-
teries out and store them
in
a cool, dry place.
• Never disassemble batteries or discard them
in
fire.
• When using a pair of batteries, make sure they are of the
same make.
• Always check battery power before the shooting session
because battery power can become exhausted without
warning.
It
is
a good idea to have spare batteries
on
hand
during a protracted shooting assignment.
•
In
normal
use
, a battery's lifespan
is
about one year.
The
battery packed with this camera, however,
is
for test pur-
poses only
so
its lifespan may
be
shorter than usual.
