If the poles of the Nickel Metal Hydride batteries are dirty,
the batteries may not charge properly. Occasionally clean

At the time of purchase, or when the Nickel Metal
Hydride batteries haven’t been used for a long time, they
may not fully charge. This is typical of this type of battery,
and is not a malfunction. If this happens, several cycles of
using the battery until it is completely drained and then
charging the battery fully should correct the problem.

If you recharge Nickel Metal Hydride batteries before
fully using up the existing charge, the low battery warning
may be displayed sooner than expected. This is called the
“memory effect.”* If this problem occurs, charging the
batteries only after using up the existing charge will
correct it.

Do not charge any other batteries except Sony Nickel
Metal Hydride batteries in the charger supplied with your
camera. If you try to charge any other type of battery (e.g.,
manganese batteries, alkaline dry cells, or one-time
lithium batteries) than the batteries specified, those
batteries may leak, overheat, or explode, causing the
danger of burns or other injuries.
