Preparing the Camera

zDo not allow any metal objects

such as key rings to touch the

and terminals (Fig. A),

as this can damage the battery

pack. To carry the battery pack

or store it during periods of

disuse, always replace the

terminal cover (Fig. B).

zEven charged battery packs

continue to discharge naturally.

You are advised to charge the

battery on the day of use, or one

day before, to ensure a full

charge.

zSince storing a fully charged battery pack for long periods of time (about

one year) may shorten its life cycle or affect its performance, you are

recommended to use it in the camera until it is completely discharged and

to store it in an indoor location with low relative humidity and between the

temperatures of 0 to 30 °C (32 to 86 °F). If you do not use the battery pack

for long periods of time, charge it fully and discharge it fully in the camera

about once a year before returning it to storage.

zIf the performance of the battery pack diminishes substantially even when it

is fully charged, its life has been exceeded and it should be replaced.
