- Do not recharge any battery pack other than Battery Pack BP-511 or BP-512.
- The battery continues to discharge a low electrical current even while the camera is not used. This may lead to excessive battery discharge and a shorter battery service life.
When not using the camera, remove the battery and attach the protective cover to prevent shorting. Before using the camera again, be sure to recharge the battery.
- The time required to recharge the battery depends on the ambient temperature and battery's power level.
- If operating time is sharply reduced even after charging normally, the battery pack may have exceeded its useful life. Replace it with a new battery pack.
- The battery pack can operate in temperatures from 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F), however for full operating performance, use between 10°C (50°F) and 30°C (86°F) is recommended. In cold locations such as ski areas, battery performance is temporarily decreased and operating time may be reduced.
