Inserting the Batteries
Insert batteries into the camera. Use four AA lithium batteries, AA Ni-MH
rechargeable batteries, or AA alkaline batteries.
This camera is packaged with AA lithium batteries for checking the camera
functionality but other kinds of batteries are also compatible. Use the compatible
batteries according to the intended purpose.
Available Batteries Characteristics
AA lithium batteries
Provided with the camera. Recommended when using the
camera in cold climates.
AA Ni-MH
rechargeable
batteries
These are rechargeable and are economical.
A commercially available battery charger that is
compatible with the batteries is required.
AA alkaline batteries
These are easily obtainable when the batteries you are
using run out but they may not support all the camera
functions under certain conditions. We do not recommend
using them except in emergencies or when checking the
camera functionality.
• Do not use the Ni-Mn batteries as the batteries’ voltage characteristics may
cause a malfunction.
• AA lithium batteries and AA alkaline batteries that can be used in this camera
are not rechargeable.
• Do not open the battery cover or remove the batteries while the power is on.
• Remove the batteries when you do not plan to use the camera for a long time.
If you leave them in the camera for a long time, they may leak.
• If the date and time settings have been reset when you insert new batteries
after a long time has passed since the batteries were removed, follow the
procedure for “Setting the Date and Time” (p.56).
• Insert the batteries correctly. Batteries inserted incorrectly may cause a
camera breakdown. Wipe the electrodes of the batteries before inserting.
• Replace all the batteries at the same time and do not mix battery types,
brands or old batteries with new ones. Otherwise, malfunctions, such as the
battery level not being displayed properly, may occur.
