BG-N17

BAT TERY GRIP

Designed for the Nikon

D500 DSLR Camera

USER’S MANUAL

Thank you for

choosing Vello.

The Vello BG-N17 is compatible with the Nikon D500

DSLR camera. The BG-N17 accepts one Nikon EN-EL15

rechargeable battery, in addition to the camera’s internal

battery. Eight AA batteries (alkaline, Ni-MH, or lithium)

can be used instead for added convenience. The BG-N17

is equipped with alternate shutter release, control lock,

function, and AF-ON buttons, as well as a multi selector

and main and sub-command dials, for shooting in a vertical

position.

Please read through this entire manual before

using the BG -N17 battery grip.

Precautions

The BG-N17 should be used only with the compatible

devices specified in this manual.

Use only with batteries and battery holders

recommended in this manual. The BG-N17 cannot

be used with other batteries or battery holders.

When the BG-N17 is not attached to the camera,

cover the power/signal contacts with the contact

cap. This prevents electrical shorts caused by metal

coming into contact with the power/signal contacts.

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.

The memory card access lamp may glow temporarily

when the BG-N17 is mounted or removed from the

camera. This is part of the normal operation.

6. If you notice smoke, noise, or an unusual smell from

the battery pack, discontinue use immediately.

Remove the batteries and contact Vello Customer

Service.

The BG-N17 does not have a power switch. Instead,

use the camera power switch to turn the power on

or off.

The battery level may not display properly if batteries

are inserted before mounting the grip.

9. Remove batteries from the grip when not in use.

10.

In cold temperatures, batteries can discharge

at a faster rate. Warming up a cold battery can

recover some of its lost charge and help improve

its performance.

11.

Keep this device away from water or extreme

humidity, and store it in a dry and cool place.

12 . Keep out of reach of children.
