Appendices

Replacing the Date Battery

The camera uses a special Date battery to power its internal clock. If the LCD monitor displays the Set Date/ Time menu when you turn on the camera, this means that the Date battery has run down and the clock has stopped running. Please purchase a replacement battery (battery type CR2016) and install it as follows. (The date battery is preinstalled at the factory and may therefore expire earlier than its rated lifespan after the camera has been purchased.)

¡Be particularly careful to keep the date batteries out

of the reach of children. Seek medical assistance immediately if a child swallows a battery since corrosive battery fluids could damage the stomach or intestinal wall.

1 Be sure that the camera is turned off.

2 Open the CF card slot cover.

3 Pull out the date battery holder.
