Important battery information

Battery safety and handling

  • Do not allow batteries to touch metal objects, including coins. Otherwise, batteries may short circuit, discharge energy, become hot, or leak.

  • Dispose of batteries according to local and national regulations.

Extending battery life

  • Limit the following activities that quickly deplete battery power:

    • Reviewing your pictures on the camera screen

    • Using the camera screen as a viewfinder

    • Excessive use of the flash

  • Dirt on the battery contacts can affect battery life. Wipe the contacts with a clean, dry cloth before loading batteries in the camera.

  • Battery performance is reduced at temperatures below 41° F (5° C). When using your camera in cold weather, carry spare batteries and keep them warm. Do not discard cold batteries that do not work; when they return to room temperature, they may be usable.

  • If you are getting fewer than 20 pictures per charge with your Ni-MH rechargeable battery pack, (and if none of the tips above seem to help), consider refreshing the battery pack (see Refreshing the Ni-MH rechargeable battery pack).
