Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Hahnel HL-EL12, charge the battery fully before its first use. When inserting the battery, ensure the gold contact points are aligned with the camera's internal pins. For storage, keep the battery in a cool, dry place and avoid fully draining it if the camera will be unused for several months. If the battery will be stored for an extended period, try to maintain a 50% charge level to protect the internal chemical health of the cells.
