Turning On Power for the First Time
The first time you load a battery into the camera, a screen appears for configuring screen text language, date, and time settings. Use the procedure under “Configuring Display Language, Date, and Time Settings” (page 12) to configure the settings correctly.
IMPORTANT!
•Failure to set the date and time will cause the wrong date and time data to be recorded with images.
•If you make a mistake when configuring the language, date, and time settings, you can change the settings (pages 192, 196).
