Battery safety and handling

CAUTION:
When removing the battery, allow it to cool; it may be hot.

  • Use only batteries approved for this product to avoid risk of explosion.

  • Keep batteries out of the reach of children.

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

  • Do not disassemble, install backward, or expose batteries to liquid, moisture, fire, or extreme temperature.

  • Remove the battery when the product is stored for an extended period of time. In the unlikely event that battery fluid leaks inside the product, contact Kodak customer support.

  • In the unlikely event that battery fluid leaks onto your skin, wash immediately with water and contact your local health provider. For additional health-related information, contact your local Kodak customer support.

  • Dispose of batteries according to local and national regulations.

  • Do not charge non-rechargeable batteries.

Battery life

Use these Kodak batteries. (Battery types are also molded into the battery door.)

We do not recommend or support alkaline batteries. For acceptable battery life, and to make sure your camera operates dependably, use the batteries listed.

Extending battery life

  • See LCD Brightness () and Auto Power Off ().

  • Limit the following activities that quickly deplete battery power:

  • 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.
