Using the Flash
Flash Indicator
•If you are taking pictures in low light (dim light) and the flash is required, the flash will operate automatically. A lightning bolt 
appears on the LCD screen and blinks until the flash is ready.
•While holding the camera steady, press the shutter button to take a picture.
Hint: The flash works best when your picture subject is about 4 ft. - 7.5 ft. (1.22 m - 2.23 m) from the camera.
•When the batteries are getting weak, the flash will not fully charge and the no flash lightning bolt 
appears on the LCD screen. It’s time for an adult to change the “AA“ (LR6) batteries, see page 10.
