• 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!
• Use of the charger (BC-SCL7) named and described in this manual in combination with the stated AC-Adapter (ACA-SCL7) and its
interchangeable AC-Plugs is mandatory.
• The use of other chargers not approved by Leica Camera AG can cause damage to the batteries – and in extreme 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 service centers.
• Keep batteries out of the reach of children. Batteries can cause suffocation when swallowed.
• Always keep the charger contacts clean, and never short-circuit them.
• Using the charger in the vicinity of broadcasting receivers may interfere with reception. Ensure a distance of at least 1m 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.
• The battery must have a temperature between +10°C and +35°C for charging (otherwise the charger will not switch on or will
switch off again immediately).
• Lithium-ion batteries can be charged at any time, regardless of their current charge level. A partially charged battery will charge to
full capacity faster than a fully discharged one.
• The rechargeable batteries come only partly charged ex works and should therefore be charged fully before their first use.
• A new battery only reaches its full capacity after it has been fully charged and – by using it in the camera – depleted 2 to 3 times.
This depletion process should be repeated roughly every 25 cycles.
• Battery and charger heat up during the charging process. That is normal and not a malfunction.
• A flashing charge status indicator when charging commences indicates a fault (e.g. max. charging time is surpassed, voltage or
temperature outside permitted parameters or a short-circuit). Disconnect the charger from the mains and remove the battery.
Ensure that the above temperature conditions are met and then restart the charging process. Please contact your dealer, the Leica
representative in your region or Leica Camera AG if the problem persists.
• Rechargeable lithium-ion batteries generate power by way of internal chemical reactions. These reactions are influenced by
ambient temperature and humidity. Do not expose the battery to extreme temperatures (high or low) for extended periods of time
(e.g. in a parked car in the summer or winter) to ensure a maximum service life.
FIRST AID
• Battery fluid may cause blindness if it comes into contact with the eyes. Rinse the eyes thoroughly with clean water
immediately. Avoid rubbing. Seek medical attention immediately.
• Leaked battery fluid poses an injury hazard when it comes in contact with clothing or skin. Rinse the affected areas
thoroughly with clean water.
MEMORY CARD
• Never remove the memory card during a datasave or card reading process. The camera must not be switched off or be
subjected to impact or vibrations while working.
• 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.
SENSOR
• Cosmic radiation (e.g. during flights) may cause pixel defects.
CARRY STRAP
• Once you have attached the carry strap, please make sure that the clips are mounted correctly to prevent the camera from falling.
• Carry straps are usually made of very robust material. You should therefore keep it out of the reach of children. A carry strap
is not a toy and poses a strangulation risk.
• Use the carry strap only for its intended purpose on a camera or on binoculars. Any other use poses the risk of injury and may
possibly result in damage to the carry strap and is therefore not permitted.
• Carry straps should also not be used for cameras/binoculars during sports activities that pose a risk of entanglement (e.g.
when mountain climbing and similar outdoor activities).
