• Do not expose the rechargeable battery to sunlight, heat, humidity or moisture for prolonged periods of time.
Likewise, the batteries must not be placed in a microwave oven or a high-pressure container as this would
pose a fire or explosion hazard!
• Do not under any circumstances charge or insert a damp or wet battery into the camera!
• A safety valve in the battery ensures that any excess pressure caused by improper handling is discharged
safely. It is nevertheless important to dispose of a bloated battery immediately. It may pose an explosion
hazard!
• Keep the battery contacts clean and easily accessible. Although lithium-ion batteries are secured against
short circuits, they should still be protected against contact with metal objects like paper clips or jewelry. A
short-circuited battery can get very hot and cause severe burns.
• When a battery is accidentally dropped, make sure to check the housing and the contacts immediately for any
damage. A damaged battery can damage the camera.
• The battery must be removed from the camera or charger and must be replaced immediately in case of a
strange smell, discoloration, deformation, overheating or leakage. Continued use of the battery may result in
overheating, which can cause fire and/or explosion!
• Never throw batteries into a fire as they may explode.
• Keep the battery away from sources of heat in case of leakage or if you smell burning. Leaked fluid can catch
fire!
• The use of other chargers not approved by Leica Camera AG can cause damage to the batteries – and in ex-
treme cases – cause serious or life-threatening injuries.
• Make sure that the power socket is freely accessible at all times.
• Do not attempt to open the battery or the charger. Repairs must only be carried out by authorized workshops.
• Keep batteries out of the reach of children. Batteries can cause suffocation when swallowed.
CHARGER
• Using the charger in the vicinity of broadcasting receivers may interfere with reception. Ensure a distance of
at least 1 m between the charger and the receiver.
• When the charger is in use, it may emit a buzzing sound – that is normal and not a malfunction.
• Disconnect the charger from the mains when it is not in use, as it consumes electricity (a very small amount),
even if no battery is inserted.
• Always keep the charger contacts clean, and never short-circuit them.
MEMORY CARD
• Never remove the memory card during a data save or card reading process. The camera must not be switched
off or be subjected to impact or vibrations while working.
• Do not open the compartment or remove the memory card or battery while the status LED is flashing to indi-
cate camera memory access. Data on the card may otherwise be destroyed and camera malfunctions may
occur.
• Do not drop or bend memory cards as this will cause damage and result in the loss of stored data.
• Do not touch the connections on the reverse of the memory card and keep them clean and dry.
• Keep memory cards out of the reach of children. Swallowing a memory card may cause suffocation.
• CFexpress cards (Type B) may heat up during the saving of longer video recordings.
CAUTION: HOT MEMORY CARD
As indicated on the inside of the memory card door, the memory card may be hot just after the
camera has been used. Be careful when removing. When a high temperature caution message is
displayed on the screen, do not remove the memory card immediately, but rather wait for it to cool
down and the message to disappear.
