35 Conclusions.  We have increased the PNe sample. The distribution of HII regions appear to be confined to the center of the galaxy instead PNe apparently being over the whole galaxy.  We have derived the peak absolute magnitude of the luminosity function of NGC 6822. We get M*>4.48, Metallicity dependent?, problems with calibrations? Galactic extinction?  In this work we obtained the abundances of 7 PNe. Given a total number of 10 PNe abundances for this galaxy.  Two PNe in our sample are Type I (2. 4-8 Msun).  Two are oxygen self-enrichment. This are not useful as observational constraint of Oxygen.  All these results will be taken into account in our chemical model of NGC 6822.  We have increased the PNe sample.
