Built-in Rechargeable Battery

To store the date/time in memory, a rechargeable battery is integrated in the camera. As long as the camera is connected to an AC outlet using the AC power adapter, or the batteries installed in the camera continue to supply power to the camera, the built-in battery is always charged. However, if the camera is not used for approx. 3 months, the built- in battery will become discharged and the date/time stored in memory will be lost. When this occurs, connect the camera to an AC outlet using the AC power adapter for over 24 hours to charge the built- in rechargeable battery. Before using the camera again, set the date/time.

Note that it is possible to use the camera without setting the date/time.
