BASIC OPERATION

CHANGING BATTERIES

This digital camera uses four AA-size nickel-metal hydride (Ni-MH) batteries. When using new Ni-MH batteries, fully charge them before their initial use.

When replacing batteries, check that the mode dial is in the off posi- tion.

Open the battery-chamber door by moving the battery-chamber lock to the open position.

Insert the batteries.

• Make sure the positive and negative battery terminals are orientated as illustrated on the diagram in the battery chamber.

Close the battery-chamber door and slide the lock lever to the close position.

Although alkaline batteries can be used with this product, their performance will be limited. Only use alkaline batteries for test photographs or when Ni-MH batteries, the Minolta External High-power Battery Pack, or AC adapter are not available.
