Canon A510, A520 Replacing the Date Battery, Confirm that the camera is turned off, Appendix 137

Appendix

zIf the battery is used in cold regions (0°C/ 32°F or lower), you are recommended to carry a spare lithium battery (CR123A or DL123). Keep the spare battery warm in your pocket until immediately before using it, and exchange it frequently with the battery in the flash.

zRemove the battery from the flash and store it in a dry and cool location if you will not use it for extended periods. Leaving it in the flash could lead to the battery leaking and damaging the flash.

zFasten the attachment screws securely so that they do not loosen. Failure to do so may lead to the dropping of the camera and flash resulting in damage to both.

zBefore affixing the bracket to the flash, check that the lithium battery (CR123A or DL123) is installed.

zTo illuminate the subjects properly, install the flash so that it is up against the side of the camera and parallel with the camera’s front panel.

zA tripod can be used even when the flash is attached.

Replacing the Date Battery

If the Date/Time menu appears when the camera power is turned on, the date battery charge is low and the date and time settings have been lost.

Please purchase a lithium coin battery (CR1220) and replace it as follows.

Please note that the first date battery may appear to expire relatively quickly after you purchase the camera. This is because it is installed in the camera at the point of manufacture, not when you make the purchase.

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 Confirm that the camera is turned off.
