◆
About the Batteries
◆
h
Never use a battery when the outer casing is split or peeling as
this could result in a short-circuit and cause major problems
due to battery fluid leakage or overheating.
h
Do not use AA-size lithium, manganese or nickel-cadmium (Ni-
Cd) batteries.
h
Do not use batteries of different types or brands together and
do not use new batteries together with used batteries.
h
The useful life of alkaline batteries varies depending on the brand. The life of some batteries may
be considerably shorter than the batteries supplied with the camera. Due to the nature of alkaline
batteries, the time for which they can be used is shorter in cold locations (+10°C (+50°F) or below).
h
Soiling such as fingermarks or grease on the poles of batteries can significantly reduce the
number of shots that can be taken.
h
See P.112 for other precautions concerning the use of batteries.
