When jurors have been sworn in a felony case, the court may, at its discretion, permit the jurors to separate until the court has given its charge to the jury, after which the jury shall be kept together ... until a verdict has been rendered or the jury finally discharged, unless by permission of the court with the consent of each party.. .. In any case in which the jury is permitted to separate, the court shall first give the jurors proper instructions with regard to their conduct as jurors when so separate ed.” (Emphasis added.)”
