Do not drop, hit, or submit the battery pack to
strong shocks
i
If the safety mechanisms and protective devices are
broken, an abnormal chemical reaction may occur
inside the battery pack, or cause the battery pack to
catch fire, explode, leak or spew battery fluid, or
generate heat.
k
Do not allow the battery pack to come into contact
with fresh or salt water, or allow the terminals to
become wet
i
If the safety mechanisms and protective devices are
damaged by corrosion, an abnormal chemical

Operating and storage conditions
DANGER
i
Temperature when using or recharging: 0 to 40°C (32 to 104°F)
i
Do not use, recharge, store or leave the battery pack near fire or inside
a car exposed to the hot sun, etc. (locations in which the temperature
reaches 60°C [140°F] or higher).
i
At high temperatures, the safety mechanisms and protective devices
inside the battery pack may be damaged by corrosion, causing an
abnormal chemical reaction to occur, or cause the battery pack to
catch fire, explode, leak or spew battery fluid, or generate heat. If the
safety mechanisms and protective devices are damaged, the battery
pack will become unusable. An environment with extremely high or low
temperatures will cause the battery capacity to deteriorate and shorten
the usable time, and may even shorten the battery life.
i
Avoid storing the battery pack with it near full charge. It is
recommended to store the battery pack when it is near fully
discharged.
i
If the battery pack is completely discharged, it may become unable to
be recharged again. To avoid this, charge the battery pack for at least
five minutes every six months.
i
Storage temperature: –10 to 30°C (14 to 86°F)
i
When not using the battery pack, remove it from the camera and store
at –10 to 30°C (14 to 86°F) in a place with no condensation.
i
Humidity: 10% to 90% (no condensation)
