Auto Power Off Function

If the camera is not used in any way for two minutes or more, the Auto Power Off function switches the camera off. This is to prevent battery depletion and to avoid excessive power usage when the camera is connected to the AC power adapter.

•The Auto Power Off function does not operate during automatic playback (aP.45) or in PC-mode (aP.79).

•To disable the Auto Power Off function, hold down the [MENU/EXE] button as you switch the camera on. To re-enable the Auto Power Off function, switching the camera off and then on again. If you operate the camera in live video mode (the video image shown before a picture is taken) or continuous playback mode for a long period, the camera body may become quite warm. This is not a fault.

•Note that if the camera has been left switched on but unused for 2 minutes or more, the flash may not operate when a photograph is taken and you may not obtain the correct image.
