THINGS TO KNOW

• Always charge your batteries before the first use as they get discharged during storage and so will not be at full capacity.
• Never mix rechargeable batteries of different brands or capacity (mAh) in your devices.
• Always check if the charger is suitable for the chemistry system of your battery.
• A camera supplied with 1600mAh batteries can use 2500mAh batteries as the capacity affects only the duration of use.
• Exact timing required to fully charge battery/batteries is dependent on type of charger, capacity of the batteries and in some cases the number of batteries being charged simultaneously.
• Never recharge alkaline, carbon zinc or lithium batteries
