Using the Stand

Your camera has a built-in stand. You can pull out the stand and keep the camera stable on a tabletop or other surface while the monitor screen is tilted upwards 180 degrees. When using the camera on a tabletop or other surface for landscape (horizontal) orientation shots, you can adjust the vertical angle of the camera somewhat by changing how far you pull out the stand.

IMPORTANT!

Stand

•When using the camera on a tabletop or other surface for portrait (vertical) orientation shots, pull

the stand out as much as possible so the camera is stable. Pulling the stand out part way in this case can cause the camera to become unstable and fall over.

•Even when using the stand to adjust the vertical

angle of the camera while shooting with landscape (horizontal) orientation, take care to extend the stand far enough to avoid camera instability, which can cause it to fall over.

First, charge the battery prior to use.

Note that the battery of a newly purchased camera is not charged. Perform the steps below to load the battery into the camera and charge it.

•Your camera requires a special CASIO rechargeable lithium ion battery (NP-130) for power. Never try to use any other type of battery.

To load the battery

1.Open the battery cover.
