Maintaining your camera

This chapter describes how to use batteries or an ac power adapter to power your camera, how to care for your camera, and how to use your camera safely.

Powering your camera

Your digital camera can be powered by batteries or an HP- approved ac power adapter. For convenience, use batteries when you are taking pictures. To preserve battery power, use an ac adapter (purchased separately) when you are reviewing images on the image display for an extended period of time, or when you are transferring images from the camera to your computer.

Determining if the batteries need to be changed

The battery icon on the status LCD indicates the charge level of the batteries. There are three levels of battery charge: good, low, and empty.

Good

Low

Empty

If the battery icon shows that the batteries are empty, it is time to replace the batteries.
