The Battery and Charger
Read and follow the warnings and cautions on pages x–xiii and 353–356 of
this manual. Do not use the battery at ambient temperatures below 0 °C
(32 °F) or above 40 °C (104 °F); failure to observe this precaution could
damage the battery or impair its performance. Capacity may be
reduced and charging times increase at battery temperatures from 0 °C
(32 °F) to 15 °C (59 °F) and from 45 °C (113 °F) to 60 °C (140 °F).
Do not short the charger terminals; failure to observe this precaution
could result in overheating and damage to the charger. Charge indoors
at ambient temperatures of 5 °C (41 °F) to 35 °C (95 °F). Battery capacity
may temporarily drop if the battery is charged at low temperatures or
used at a temperature below the temperature at which it was charged.
If the battery is charged at a temperature below 5 °C (41 °F), the battery
life indicator in the Battery info (
0 313) display may show a temporary
decrease.
Use the charger with compatible batteries only. Unplug when not in
use.
A marked drop in the time a fully charged battery retains its charge
when used at room temperature indicates that it requires replacement.
Purchase a new EN-EL18a battery.
