Installing the Batteries

Power supply

1. Batteries

AAA alkaline batteries (supplied)

Rechargeable AAA nickel-hydrogen batteries (sold separately)

Inserting the AAA batteries

Close the lens cover.

1Open the battery cover by sliding it in the direction of

the arrow.

2Insert the 2 AAA batteries with the poles aligned with the indications (+/-) inside the battery compartment.

Caution

Inserting batteries with the poles oriented incorrectly can cause battery fluid leakage and generation of heat that can result in personal injury as well as soiling, and/or damage to the camera.

3After checking that the batteries have been installed correctly, close the battery cover. Check to make sure that the cover is completely closed.

* Under Konica test conditions (room temperature, normal humidity; picture quality: Super Fine mode; flash: one full flash in two image recordings; recording operation: continuous recording at 20 sec. intervals; zoom operation: none)

Note:

Data may be corrupted if the battery cover is opened during operation without the lens cover being closed.

Remaining battery level is indicated in two steps by and . It is time to replace the

batteries when the indicator appears. When replacing the AAA batteries, replace both at the same time.

Remaining battery level may not always be indicated correctly when using AAA nickel-hydrogen

batteries. Sometimes it is possible to continue recording even when the indicator is shown.

Do not mix old and new batteries.

Battery life varies according to the brand and grade.

Do not mix batteries of different capacities, types, or brands.

The values mentioned in “Battery life (reference)” are reference values and are not guaranteed. Especially for alkaline batteries, depending on the brand, or even for batteries of the same brand, the service life may become extremely short as you approach the “use before date”, and the environment of use may cause differences in inner electrical resistance and capacity that will also shorten service life. Operation at low temperatures should be avoided as much as possible, and the use of fresh batteries is recommended.

Battery life may decrease due to bad contact if the +/- poles of the batteries are contaminated by oil or grease from fingerprints. Always wipe batteries with a soft, dry cloth before use.
