Replacing the Button Battery and Setting the Date/Time
Preparing the Camera
The camera is equipped with a button battery to maintain the date and time settings even when the main battery is removed. When the button battery charge runs out and the date and time settings are lost, the button battery icon(
) flashes in the display panel. Replace the button battery with a generic CR 2025 lithium cell and reset the date and time.
•The initial button battery is installed in the camera at the factory for testing purposes.
•The button battery icon will continue to flash in the display panel even if the button battery has been replaced if the date and time have not been reset. Reset them immediately after the battery is replaced.
Replacing the Button Battery
