C Types of power source: "23. POWER SUPPLY SYSTEM"

The battery was not charged at the factory. Charge the battery fully before using the OS.

• The charger will become rather hot during use. This is normal.

• Do not use to charge batteries other than those specified.

• The charger is for indoor use only. Do not use outdoors.

• Batteries cannot be charged, even when the charging lamp is flashing, when the temperature is

outside the charging temperature range.

• Remove batteries from the charger before putting into storage.

• When not in use, disconnect the power cable plug from the wall outlet.

• Store the battery in a dry room where the temperature is within the following ranges

For long-term storage, the battery should be charged at least once every six months.

• Batteries generate power using a chemical reaction and as a result have a limited lifetime. Even

when in storage and not used for long periods, battery capacity deteriorates with the passage of

time. This may result in the operating time of the battery shortening despite having been charged

correctly. In this event, a new battery is required.
