GETTING READY
■AC Adaptor Precautions
•Be sure to turn off power before connecting or disconnecting the AC adaptor.
•Always turn camera power off before disconnecting the AC adaptor, even if the camera has a battery installed. If you don’t, the camera will turn off automatically when you disconnect the AC adaptor. You also run the risk of damaging the camera whenever you disconnect the AC adaptor without first turning power off.
•The AC adaptor may become warm to touch after extended periods of use. This is normal and is not cause for alarm.
•After using the camera, turn it off and unplug the AC adaptor from the AC outlet.
•The camera automatically switches over to AC adaptor powered operation whenever the AC adaptor is plugged into the camera.
•Always use the AC adaptor to power the camera whenever it is connected to a computer.
•Never place a blanket or any other cover on the AC adaptor. Doing so creates the risk of fire.
Turning the Camera On and Off
Press the power button to turn the camera on and off. Pressing the power button to turn on the camera causes the green operation lamp to flash. Press the power button again to turn off the camera.

IMPORTANT! 
•If camera power is turned off by the Auto Power Off feature, press the power button to turn it back on again.
•Turning on camera power while the mode dial is set to a REC mode causes the lens to extend from the camera. Make sure there is nothing in front of the camera that can be hit by the lens when you turn on the camera.
