and discharges.
•
We
recommend charging the batteries
after they are fully discharged. If you
charge the batteries before they are
fully discharged, it can reduce battery
performance. This is called "memory
effect".
• If "memory effect" occurs, continue using
the batteries until the camera stops
working and then charge them fully.
Battery performance will be restored after
a few charges and discharges.
•
Over
time Ni-MH batteries naturally
discharge and their capacity lowers even
when they are not-used.
• Once the batteries have reached full
charge,
do
not continue to charge them.
•
Do
not peel off
or
scratch the covering on
Ni-MH batteries.
• Read the operating instructions for the
battery charger.
Ni-MH batteries have a limited life. Battery
capacity gradually decreases
over
time. If
the length of time you can use the camera
is extremely short even after fully charging
the batteries, they
may
have exceeded
their life span. Purchase new batteries.
• Battery life differs depending on
the
conditions of storage and usage and the
environment.
When
not
using the batteries
for
a long
period
of
time
• If ttle batteries are left
in
the camera
they will discharge. This is because a
small electrical current continues to flow
even when the camera is turned off. If
the batteries continue
to
be left in the
camera, they will discharge excessively
and may become unusable even if
charged.
• When storing the batteries for a long
period of time, we recommend charging
them once a year. Remove the batteries
from the camera and store them again
after they have completely discharged.
