Camera Basics
Sleep Mode
To conserve battery power, the HP PhotoSmart C500 Digital Camera automatically “sleeps” after a period of no activity. This period of time differs depending on the camera mode and the power source. For example, if you are using battery power and you do not press any camera buttons for 30 seconds, the color LCD turns itself off and the camera sleeps. The camera also turns itself off and retracts the lens after 10 minutes with battery power, and after 30 minutes with AC adapter power. For more information about the sleep and shutoff times, see “Setting Auto Shutoff” on page 64.
To “wake up” the camera:
•Press any button.
