Troubleshooting

If you return the menu settings to the initial settings at the time of purchase, the condition may improve.

Select [RESET] in the [SETUP] menu. (P23)

∫Batteries and the power source

1:The camera turns off immediately even when battery power is full. The remaining battery power is low even if new batteries are inserted.

•The remaining battery power may not be displayed accurately, and the camera may suddenly stop working, when the type of battery and the settings on [BATTERY TYPE] are not identical. However this is not a malfunction. Depending on the battery brand and the operating temperature, or if exhausted batteries are used, the remaining battery power may not be displayed accurately.

–Please check [BATTERY TYPE] (P21) in the [SETUP] menu.

2:The camera cannot be operated even when it is turned on.

•Are the batteries inserted correctly?

•Use sufficiently charged batteries when using Ni-MH batteries.

3:The LCD monitor turns off while the camera is turned on.

•Is power save mode (P22) or economy mode (P22) activated?

–Press the shutter button halfway to cancel these modes.

•Are the batteries exhausted?

–Replace them with batteries which have sufficient capacity. (When you use Ni-MH batteries, charge them.)

4:The camera turns off immediately after it is turned on.

•Are the batteries exhausted?
