Effective use of the battery
• Battery performance decreases in low-
temperature surroundings, and the battery
life is shortened under such
circumstances. To use the battery pack
longer, we recommend you keep the
battery pack in a pocket close to your
body to warm it, and insert it in your
camera just before you start shooting.

Remaining battery time indicator
If the power goes off although the battery
remaining indicator indicates that the
battery pack has enough power to operate,
charge the battery pack fully again after
running it down so that the indication on the
battery remaining indicator is correct. Note,
however, that the correct battery indication
sometimes will not be restored if it is used
in high temperatures for a long time or left
in a fully charged state, or the battery pack
is frequently used.
