Using the new rechargeable battery or rechargeable battery that has not
been used for an extended period of time (the battery that passed the expiry
date is an exception) might affect the number of pictures that can be taken.
Therefore, to maximize its performance and lifetime, we recommend that you
fully charge the battery and discharge it for at least one complete cycle
before use.
The battery may feel warm after long period of continuous use of the camera
or the flash. This is normal and not a malfunction.
