INSERTING THE BATTERIES

This digital camera uses two AA-size alkaline batteries or Ni-MH batteries. AA-size Ni-MH batteries are recommended because of longer life. Do not use other types of batteries with this camera. When using Ni-MH batteries, fully recharge them with a battery charger suitable for complex electronic equipment. Please consult your vendor about an appropriate charger. When replacing the batteries, the camera should be turned off.

Slide the battery-chamber door toward the front of the camera to release the safety catch (1). Open the door.

time following the instructions in page 20. The clock

 

and calendar can also be set in section 3 of the

calendar, and memory settings are lost.
