Appendix
Olympus NiMH batteries (included in some areas) are intended for use only with Olympus digital
cameras. Never use these batteries with any other device.
Always charge NiMH batteries (included in some areas) before using them for the first time, or if
they have not been used for a long period.
Always charge sets of batteries (included in some areas) (2 or 4) together.
Do not use alkaline batteries unless it is absolutely necessary. In some cases, alkaline batteries
may have a shorter service life than NiMH. Alkaline battery performance is limited, especially at
low temperatures. The use of NiMH batteries is recommended.
AA manganese (Zinc-Carbon) batteries cannot be used with this camera.
When operating the camera with battery power at low temperatures, try to keep the camera and
spare batteries as warm as possible. Batteries which run down at low temperatures may be
restored after they are warmed at room temperature.
Recommended temperature ranges for NiMH batteries:
Operation .................0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F)
Charge .....................0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F)
Storage.....................-20°C to 30°C (-4°F to 86°F)
Using, charging, or storing the batteries outside these ranges could shorten battery life or affect
battery performance. Always unload the batteries from the camera before storing the camera for
a long period.
Before using NiMH or NiCd batteries, always read the provided instructions.
The number of pictures you can take may vary depending on the shooting conditions or batteries.
Before going on a long trip, and especially before traveling abroad, purchase an ample supply of
extra batteries. The recommended batteries may be difficult to obtain while traveling.
Please recycle batteries to help save our planet’s resources. When you throw away dead
batteries, be sure to cover their terminals and always observe local laws and regulations.
Do not push the monitor forcibly; otherwise the image may become vague, resulting in a playback
mode failure or damage to the monitor.
A strip of light may appear on the top/bottom of the monitor, but this is not a malfunction.
When a subject is viewed diagonally in the camera, the edges may appear zigzagged on the
monitor. This is not a malfunction; it will be less noticeable in playback mode.
In places subject to low temperatures, the LCD monitor may take a long time to turn on or its color
may change temporarily. When using the camera in extremely cold places, it is a good idea to
occasionally place it in a warm place. An LCD monitor exhibiting poor performance due to low
temperatures will recover in normal temperatures.
The LCD used for the monitor is made with high-precision technology. However, black spots or
bright spots of light may appear constantly on the LCD Monitor. Due to its characteristics or the
angle at which you are viewing the monitor, the spot may not be uniform in color and brightness.
This is not a malfunction.
