Effective use of Nickel-Metal Hydride

batteries

• Batteries are discharged even when they are not

used. We recommend you charge the batteries

just before using them.

• Battery performance decreases in low-

temperature surroundings, and the battery life is

shortened under such circumstances. To use the

battery longer, we recommend you keep the

battery in its case in a pocket close to your body

to warm it, and insert it in your camera just

before you start shooting.

• If the poles of the batteries and the terminals on

the battery cover of the camera are dirty, the

battery life may be extremely shortened.

Occasionally wipe them with a dry cloth, etc. to

keep them clean.

• If you shoot a lot using the flash and the zoom,

the battery power will be used up faster.

• We recommend having spare batteries handy for

two or three times the expected shooting time,

and try test shooting before actually using the

camera.

Battery life of Nickel-Metal Hydride

batteries

• The battery life is limited. The battery capacity

decreases little by little as you use it more and

more, and as time passes. When the battery

operating time seems to have been considerably

shortened, a probable cause is that the batteries

have reached the end of their life.

• The battery life varies depending on storage,

operating conditions, and environment, and is

different for each battery.

On alkaline batteries/Oxy Nickel

Primary Battery

• Alkaline batteries/Oxy Nickel Primary Battery

have a shorter life compared to the Nickel-Metal

Hydride batteries. For this reason, the power

may turn off even though the battery remaining

indicator shows sufficient battery life remaining.

• Battery performance differs greatly depending

on the manufacturer and the type of battery, and

in some cases the battery life may be extremely

short. This is especially true at low

temperatures, and you may not be able to shoot

at temperatures below 5°C (41°F).

• Do not mix new and old batteries.

• The battery remaining indicator may not display

the correct information when using alkaline

batteries/Oxy Nickel Primary Battery.

• Due to characteristics of alkaline batteries/Oxy

Nickel Primary Battery, there is a large

difference between the available shooting time

and the available playback time. For this reason,

the camera may turn off with the lens portion

extended when you switch the mode dial. In this

case, replace the batteries with new ones or fully

charged Nickel-Metal Hydride batteries.

Precautions on the battery pack NP-

NH25

• Refer to the operating instructions “Cyber-shot

Station”.
