Attention:
• Only the battery type specified and described in this manual
(order no. 14 499), or battery types specified and described by
Leica Camera AG, may be used in this camera.
• These batteries may only be used in the units for which they are
designed and may only be charged exactly as described below.
• Using this battery contrary to the instructions and using non-
specified battery types can result in an explosion under certain
circumstances.
• The batteries may not be exposed to heat, sunlight, humidity or
moisture for long periods. Likewise, the batteries may not be
placed in a microwave oven or a high pressure container as this
results in a risk of fire or explosion.
• A safety valve in the battery guarantees that any excess pressure
caused by improper handling is discharged safely.
• Only the charger specified and described in this manual (order no.
14 494) is to be used. The use of other chargers not approved by
Leica Camera AG can cause damage to the batteries and, in
extreme cases, can cause serious or life-threatening injuries.
• The charger supplied should be used exclusively for charging this
battery type. Do not attempt to use it for other purposes.
• The car charging cable supplied may never be connected while the
charger is connected to the mains.
• Ensure that the mains outlet used for charging is freely accessible.
