BG-C6
BAT TERY GRIP
Designed for the Canon
EOS 60D SLR Camera
USER’S MANUAL
Introduction
Thank you for choosing Vello and congratulations on
your new BG-C6 battery grip purchase. Enjoy the many
benefits that a battery grip offers, such as extended
shooting time and more control and comfort when
shooting in a vertical (portrait) orientation.
The Vello BG-C6 is compatible with the Canon EOS
60D SLR camera. The BG-C6 accepts two Canon LP-E6
rechargeable batteries, or six AA batteries (alkaline, Ni-
MH, lithium, or nickel-manganese) can be used instead
for added convenience. The BG-C6 is equipped with an
alternate shutter-release button, AF point selection, AE
lock/FE lock button, AF Start, and main dial for shooting
in a vertical position.
Please read through this entire manual before
using the BG-C6 battery grip.

Precautions
1.
The BG-C6 should only be used with compatible
devices specified in this manual.
2.
Only use with batteries and battery holders
recommended in this manual.
3.
Cover the power terminals with the contact cap
when the BG-C6 is not in use. This prevents electrical
shorts caused by metal objects touching the power
terminals.
4.
When the battery holder is removed from the
grip, remove the batteries or place the holder in
a container to prevent electrical shorts caused by
contact with other metal objects.
5. If you notice smoke, an unusual smell or noise from
the battery pack, discontinue use immediately.
Remove the batteries and take the device to a Vello
authorized reseller.
6.
Turn the grip power off when not shooting vertically.
7.
The battery level may not display properly if batteries
are inserted before mounting the grip.
8. Remove batteries from the grip when not in use.
9. Do not attempt to disassemble.
10.
Avoid water or extreme humidity and keep in a dry
and cool place.
11. Keep out of reach of children.
