BATTERY-CONDITION INDICATOR
The camera has a battery-condition indicator. When the camera is on, the indicator appears on the data panel. If the data panel is blank, the batteries may be exhausted or installed incorrectly.
Full-battery indicator - power is sufficient for all camera operations.
Low-battery indicator - indicator blinks. All functions are operational, but the batteries need to be replaced soon. Flash recycling time may be slow.
Low-battery warning - indicator blinks and no other indicators appear on the data panel. Power is insufficient for camera operation and the shutter will not release. Replace the batteries.
Occasionally, the battery-condition indicator can give a false low- battery warning, even though power is sufficient for operation. Turn the camera on and off a few times to reset the display.
