Turn off the camera and remove the batteries or unplug the external power
supply. Wait for the message to disappear before reinserting the batteries or
plugging in the power supply. If the camera is hot, allow it to cool before
removing the batteries and Compactflash card.
If the camera does not function normally, turn it off, remove and reinsert the batteries, or unplug and
reconnect the AC adapter. Always turn the camera off using the mode dial otherwise the
CompactFlash card may be damaged and camera settings reset. The camera temperature rises with
extended periods of use. Care should be taken to avoid burns when handling the camera, batteries,
or CompactFlash card.
When using Ni-MH batteries, clean both battery terminals with dry cloth to wipe off any dirt or
residue. Because of the sophisticated computer system, the camera critically monitors power levels. If
the battery terminals are dirty, the camera may give a false low-battery warning. If battery
performance is unusually low, wipe the battery terminals with a clean, dry cloth.
Ni-MH battery performance will decrease if the batteries are often recharged before they have been
fully discharged. Completely exhaust the Ni-MH batteries using the camera before charging.
