Quick setup, Attach the wrist strap, Install the batteries | HP 318

Quick setup

Setting up your digital camera is quick and easy—follow these steps and you’ll be ready to take pictures.

Step 1: Attach the wrist strap

1Thread the short loop through the wrist strap attachment that is

located under the CF memory card compartment door. You might need to use a pointed object, such as a paper clip, to pull the end of the loop through.

2Pull the strap through the loop, and then pull the knot tight.

Step 2: Install the batteries

1Open the battery compartment door by pushing it out and then swinging it open.

2Insert four AA batteries (supplied), making sure that the +/– electrodes are facing the proper direction (see the diagram on the inside of the camera’s battery compartment).

Note	For replacement, use only photo-quality alkaline,
	photo-lithium, or rechargeable nickel-metal hydride
	(NiMH) batteries.
