By inserting a charged battery or connecting an AC adapter kit (sold separately, p. 38) the date/time battery can be charged in about 4 hours even if the camera is not turned on.

If the date/time battery is depleted, the Date/Time menu will appear when you turn the camera on. Follow the steps on p. 19 to set the date and time.
