Rechargeable battery grip – precautions
e following precautions should be adhered to:
Battery grip rechargeable 7.2 V:
• Connect the battery grip to the camera correctly.
• Keep the protective cover in place when not in use. (Short-circuiting across keys
in a pocket, for example, could cause a fire risk).
• Do not use the battery grip for anything other than an H1/H1D/H2/H2D camera.
• Do not immerse the battery grip in liquids.
• Do not incinerate the battery grip. Please recycle or discard in an environmentally
approved manner.
• Do not use any other charger than the Hasselblad battery charger BC-H Li-ion 7.2
VDC (3053568).
Battery charger BC-H Li-ion 7.2 VDC:
• Read the instructions before using the charger.
• Use indoors only (protect against moisture).
• Do not use charger for anything else than charging of Battery grip rechargeable
7.2 V (3043348).
• Do not short-circuit the jack plug.
• Do not alter the charger in any way other than changing the plug
attachment.
Reserve lithium battery grip 9, 10, 11
e reserve lithium battery grip is attached and removed in the
same manner as the rechargeable grip.
Press the red battery cassette retaining button inwards on the
holder to release the battery cassette (fig 9). Load three CR-123
lithium (or equivalent) into the cassette, ensuring the polarity of
each battery is correctly oriented (see the ‘+’ markings on the bat-
teries and the cassette) (fig 10, 11). Re-insert the cassette into the
battery holder, ensuring that it is seated properly in place and that
the red button returns fully into the locked position. Holding the
battery holder flat against the grip and aligning the two upper lugs
with the slot in the grip, slide it back into position as far as it will
go. Swing back the battery holder retaining lever as far as it will
go into the locked position.
Battery life 12, 13
Battery life is dependent on a number of variable factors and
therefore cannot be exactly predicted.If the camera is le in the
active state instead of standby for long periods, for example, then
battery life will be reduced. A low-battery state is indicated as a
symbol on the grip LCD (fig. 12).
When the batteries are almost completely exhausted, a warning
message ‘Low battery’ will appear on the grip LCD (fig. 13). e
camera will not function at all when this message appears and
battery change is essential.
 When the low-battery icon appears, the camera automatically
enters a temporary power-saving mode. This is recognizable by
a slower pace for all the actions in an exposure sequence. The
camera actions also sound differently .
This mode is designed so that you can continue working for a
while, even though the batteries are too low for working in the
normal manner. Naturally, you should change the battery pack
as soon as possible to restore normal action again.
