BATTERY STORAGE AND HANDLING
The camera contains sensitive components, including the battery.
Avoid exposing your camera and battery to very cold or very hot
temperatures. Low or high temperature conditions may temporarily
shorten the battery life or cause the camera to temporarily stop working
properly. Avoid dramatic changes in temperature or humidity when
using the camera, as condensation may form on or within the camera.
The camera housing protects the camera and battery from water
damage. For more information, see Camera Housing. Do not turn
on your camera if it is wet. If your camera is already on, turn it
of and remove the battery immediately. Allow the camera to dry
thoroughly before using it again. Do not dry the camera or battery
with an external heat source such as a microwave oven or hair dryer.
Damage to the camera or battery caused by contact with liquid is not
covered under the warranty.
Do not store your battery with metal objects, such as coins, keys
or necklaces. If the battery terminals come in contact with metal
objects, this may cause a ire.

BATTERY DISPOSAL
Most rechargeable lithium-ion batteries are classiied as non-hazardous
waste and are safe for disposal in the normal municipal waste stream.
Many localities have laws in place requiring battery recycling. Check
your local laws to make sure that you can dispose of rechargeable
batteries in your regular trash. To safely dispose of lithium-ion batteries,
protect terminals from exposure to other metal with packing, masking
or electrical tape so they do not cause a ire while being transported.
Lithium-ion batteries, however, do contain recyclable materials and
are accepted for recycling by the Rechargeable Battery Recycling
Corporation's (RBRC) Battery Recycling Program. We encourage
you to visit Call2Recycle at call2recycle.org or call 1-800-BATTERY
in North America to ind a convenient recycling location.
Never dispose of a battery in a ire because it may explode.
WARNING: Do not drop, disassemble, open, crush, bend,
deform, puncture, shred, microwave, incinerate or paint the
camera. Do not insert foreign objects into the battery opening
on the camera. Do not use the camera or the battery if it has
been damaged—for example, if cracked, punctured or harmed
by water. Disassembling or puncturing the battery can cause
an explosion or fire.
