Caring for the Camera and Battery: Cautions

Maximizing 

the Life of the 

Ca
m

era

Dirt on the battery terminals can prevent the camera from functioning and should be 
removed with a soft, dry cloth before use. After removing the battery from the camera, be 
sure to replace the terminal cover.
Charge the battery before use. When taking photographs on important occasions, ready a 
spare EN-EL9 battery and keep it fully charged. Depending on your location, it may be 
difficult to purchase replacement batteries on short notice.
On cold days, the capacity of batteries tends to decrease. Be sure the battery is fully 
charged before taking photographs outside in cold weather. Keep a spare battery in a 
warm place and exchange the two as necessary. Once warmed, a cold battery may 
recover some of its charge.
Continuing to charge the battery after it is fully charged can impair battery performance.
Batteries may leak or explode if improperly handled. Observe the following precautions 
when handling batteries:
• Turn the product off before replacing the battery.
• The battery may become hot when used for extended periods. Observe due caution 

when handling the battery.

• Use only batteries approved for use in this equipment.
• Do not expose the battery to flame or excessive heat.
• After removing the battery from the camera, replace the terminal cover.
Used batteries are a valuable resource. Please recycle used batteries in accord with local 
regulations.
