OPTIMUM
BATTERY
PERFORMANCE
1. New batteries:
Between
manufacturing and
first use,
all
batteries exhibit
some drain.
Therefore, care
shoul{
be
taken to
purchase
the newest
(and
freshest)ones
possible.
To
help
you
do this,
some manufactures
stamp
the
date
of
manufacture on
the
bottom
of
each
battery;
ask
your
camera dealer for
assistance
in interpreting
the codes.
Temperature: Battery
life ratings
are
based
on
operation
at around
20"C
(68"
F).
At
other
temperatures,
battery
life is shortened.
At
0"C,
for instance,
battery
life is
shortened
by as much
as2l3.
Spare
batteries
should there-
fore
be kept available
if
operation
in low
temperatures
is
anticipated.
Continuous use: Batteries
are
drained
much more
quick-
ly by
continuous use than by
intermittent use.
Storage: When not in
use, the batteries
should be re-
moved from
the
cordless
battery
pack
to
prevent
dam-
age
by
leaking.
To minimize drain
during
the
period
of
disuse, store
the batteries
in a cool, dry
place.
Battery
brands:
Do
not use
mixed brands
of
batteries,
nor batteries
with different
model numbers.
Also, avoid
mixing new
and old batteries
since
proper performance
will not
be obtained
and battery
leakagb
into
your
MD-3
may occur.
Disposal:
Do not
dispose
of batteries
by
burning.
Also,
for
safety's sake, do
not disassemble
batteries
when dis-
posing.
Polarity:
When
installing
batteries,
observe
the voltage
polarities
carefully. Reversal ot
the
postttve
(+,
and nega-
tive
(__)
terminals
will result
in
leakage.
lf leakage
should
occur,
clean
carefully or take
your
MD-3
to
your
dealer.
