For Your Safety
 Power Supply and Battery*  Confirm your battery type before read-ing the following descriptions.
The following explains proper use of 
batteries and how to prolong their 
life. Incorrect use of batteries can 
cause shorter battery life, as well as 
leakage, excessive heat, fire or explo-
sion.
1   Camera uses the Rechargeable 
Lithium-ion Battery
* When shipped, the battery is not  fully charged. Always charge the 
battery before using it.
* When carrying the battery, install it  in a digital camera or keep it in the 
soft case.
■ Battery Features
• The battery gradually loses its  charge even when not used. Use 
a battery that has been charged 
recently (in the last day or two) to 
take pictures.
•  To maximize the life of the battery,  turn the camera of f as quickly as 
possible when it is not being used.
• The number of available frames  will be lower in cold locations or 
at low temperatures. Take along 
a spare fully charged battery. You 
can also increase the amount of 
power produced by putting the 
battery in your pocket or another 
warm place to heat it and then 
loading it into the camera just be-
fore you take a picture.   If you are using a heating pad, take 
care not to place the battery di-
rectly against the pad. The camera 
may not operate if you use a de-
pleted battery in cold conditions.
■  Charging the Battery
• You can charge the battery using  the battery charger (included).
- The battery can be charged  at ambient temperatures be-
tween 0°C and +40°C (+32°F 
and +104°F). Refer to the  Owner’s 
Manual  for the time of charging 
battery.
- You should charge the battery  at an ambient temperature be-
tween +10°C and +35°C (+50°F 
and +95°F). If you charge the 
battery at a temperature outside 
this range, charging takes longer 
because the performance of the 
battery is impaired.
- You cannot charge the battery  at temperatures of 0°C (+32°F) or 
below.
•  The Rechargeable Lithium-ion Bat- tery does not need to be fully dis-
charged or exhausted flat before 
being charged.
•  The battery may feel warm af ter it  has been charged or immediately 
after being used. This is perfectly 
normal.
• Do not recharge a fully charged  battery. ■ Battery Life
At normal temperatures, the bat-
tery can be used at least 300 times. 
If the time for which the battery 
provides power shortens markedly, 
this indicates that the battery has 
reached the end of its ef fective life 
and should be replaced.
■  Notes on storage
• If a battery is stored for long 
periods while charged, the per-
formance of the battery can be 
impaired. If the battery will not be 
used for some time, run the battery 
out before storing it.
• If you do not intend to use the  camera for a long period of time, 
remove the battery from the cam-
era.
•  Store the battery in a cool place. - The battery should be stored in a dry location with an ambient 
temperature between +15°C and 
+25°C (+59°F and +77°F).
-  Do not leave the battery in hot or  extremely cold places.
■  Handling the Battery  Cautions for Your Safety:
•  Do not carry or store battery with  metal objects such as necklaces or 
hairpins.
•  Do not heat the battery or throw it  into a fire.
• Do not attempt to take apart or  change the battery.
• Do not recharge the battery with  chargers other those specified. •  Dispose of used battery promptly.
•  Do not drop the battery or other-
wise subject it to strong impacts.
•  Do not expose the battery to wa- ter.
•  Always keep the battery terminals  clean.
•  Do not store batteries in hot plac- es. Also, if you use the battery for 
a long period, the camera body 
and the battery itself will become 
warm. This is normal. Use the AC 
power adapter if you are taking 
pictures or viewing images for a 
long period of time.
2   Camera uses AA-size alkaline or Ni-MH 
(nickel-metal hydride) rechargeable 
batteries
* For details on the batteries that  you can use, refer to the  Owner’s 
Manual  of your camera.
■  Cautions for Using Battery
•  Do not heat the batteries or throw  them into a fire.
•  Do not carry or store batteries with  metal objects such as necklaces or 
hairpins.
• Do not expose the batteries to  water, and keep batteries from get-
ting wet or stored in moist loca-
tions.
• Do not attempt to take apart or  change the batteries, including 
battery casings.
• Do not subject the batteries to  strong impacts. 
						

							vii
For Your Safety
•  Do not use batteries that are leak-ing, deformed, discolored.
•  Do not store batteries in warm or  humid places.
•  Keep the batteries out of reach of  babies and small children.
•  Make sure that the battery polarity  (C and D ) is correct.
•  Do not use new with used batter- ies. Do not use charged and dis-
charged batteries together.
• Do not use dif ferent types or  brands of batteries at the same 
time.
• If you do not intend to use the  camera for a long period of time, 
remove the batteries from the 
camera. Note if the camera is left 
with the batteries removed, the 
time and date settings are cleared.
•  The batteries feel warm right af ter  being used. Before removing the 
batteries, turn the camera of f and 
wait for the batteries to cool down.
•  Since batteries do not work well in  cold weather or locations, warm 
the batteries by placing them in-
side your garments before use. 
Batteries do not work well when 
cold. They will work again when 
the temperature returns to normal.
• Soil (such as fingerprints) on the  battery terminals makes the bat-
teries charge less reducing the 
number of images. Carefully wipe 
the battery terminals with a sof t 
dry cloth before loading.If any liquid at all leaks from 
the batteries, wipe the battery 
compartment thoroughly and 
then load new batteries.
If any battery fluid comes into 
contact with your hands or 
clothing, flush the area thor-
oughly with water. Note that 
battery fluid can cause loss 
of eyesight if it gets into your 
eyes. If this occurs, do not rub 
your eyes. Flush the fluid out 
with clean water and contact 
your physician for treatment.
■  Using the AA-size Ni-MH batteries  correctly
• Ni-MH batteries left unused in  storage for long periods can be-
come “deactivated”. Also, repeat-
edly charging Ni-MH batteries 
that are only partially discharged 
can cause them to suf fer from the 
“memory ef fect”. Ni-MH batteries 
that are “deactivated” or affected 
by “memory” suffer from the prob-
lem of only providing power for a 
short time af ter being charged. To 
prevent this problem, discharge 
and recharge them several times 
using the camera’s “Discharging 
rechargeable batteries” function.
  Deactivation and memory are spe- cific to Ni-MH batteries and are not 
in fact battery faults.
 See  Owner’s Manual  for the proce-
dure for “Discharging rechargeable 
batteries”.
 CAUTION CAUTIONDo not use the “Discharging re-
chargeable batteries” function when 
alkaline batteries being used.
•  To charge Ni-MH batteries, use the  quick battery charger (sold sepa-
rately). Refer to the instructions 
supplied with the charger to make 
sure that the charger is used cor-
rectly.
•  Do not use the battery charger to  charge other batteries.
• Note that the batteries feel warm  af ter being charged.
•  Due to the way the camera is con- structed, a small amount of current 
is used even when the camera is 
turned off. Note in particular that 
leaving Ni-MH batteries in the 
camera for a long period will over-
discharge the batteries and may 
render them unusable even after 
recharging.
•  Ni-MH batteries will self-discharge  even when not used, and the time 
for which they can be used may be 
shortened as a result.
• Ni-MH batteries will deteriorate  rapidly if over-discharged (e.g. 
by discharging the batteries in a 
flashlight). Use the “Discharging re-
chargeable batteries” function pro-
vided in the camera to discharge 
the batteries. • Ni-MH batteries have a limited 
service life. If a battery can only 
be used for a short time even after 
repeated discharge-charge cycles, 
it may have reached the end of its 
service life.
■  Disposing of Batteries
• When disposing of batteries, do  so in accordance with your local 
waste disposal regulations.
3   Notes on both models (1, 2)
■  AC Power Adapter
