Batteries
and
power
The battery remaining indicator is incorrect, or sufficient battery remaining
indicator is displayed but the power runs out too quickly.
• This phenomenon occurs when you use the camera
in
an
extremely hot or cold location.
• When using alkaline batteries/Oxy Nickel Primary Battery (not supplied), the displayed time
remaining may not be correctly indicated.
• The batteries are discharged. Insert new batteries or charged Nickel-Metal Hydride batteries
(not supplied) (page 9).
• When using the Nickel-Metal Hydride batteries, the poles
of
batteries or the terminals
of
the
battery cover are dirty so the batteries are not charged sufficiently. Clean them with a cotton
swab, etc.
• When using the Nickel-Metal Hydride batteries, the displayed time remaining differs from the
current one due to the memory effect, etc. Fully discharge and then charge the batteries to
correct the display.
• The batteries are dead. Replace them with new ones.
