Introduction
Thank you for choosing Vello and congratulations
on your new BG-N6 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-N6 is compatible with the Nikon D5100
DSLR camera. The BG-N6 accepts up to two Nikon
EN-EL14 rechargeable batteries. The BG-N6 is
equipped with an alternate shutter-release button that
triggers the camera via the included shutter release
cable for shooting in a vertical position.
Please read through this
entire manual before using the
BG-N6 battery grip.

Precautions
1. The BG-N6 should only be used with compatible
devices specified in this manual.
2. Only use with batteries recommended in this
manual. The BG-N6 can not be used with other
battery holders.
3. Cover the power terminals with the contact cap
when the BG-N6 is not in use. This prevents
electrical shorts caused by metal objects touching
the power terminals.
4. 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.
5. The BG-N6 does not have a power switch.
Instead, use the camera power switch to turn the
power on or off.
6. The battery level may not display properly if
batteries are inserted before mounting the grip.
7. Remove batteries from the grip when not in use.
8. Do not attempt to disassemble.
9. Avoid water or extreme humidity and keep in a
dry and cool place.
10. Keep out of reach of children.
