Turning the power on/off

When shooting pictures

Power on: Open the lens barrier.

The camera turns on in the shooting mode. The lens extends and the flash pops up.

If the lens does not extend, the lens barrier is not fully open. Open the lens barrier until it clicks.

If the date and time have reverted to the factory default settings, Y/M/D appears on the monitor. “Setting the date and

time” ( p.20)

Power off: Close the lens barrier slightly until it just touches the lens barrier.

The lens barrier stops just before it touches the lens and the lens retracts. Wait until the lens is fully retracted before closing the lens barrier completely.

The camera turns off. (The monitor also turns off.) Press the flash down manually until it locks in place.

To save battery power, the camera automatically enters the sleep mode after about 3 minutes of non-operation. If the monitor is on, it will automatically turn off. The camera activates again as soon as you lightly press the shutter button or zoom lever. Whenever possible, turn the camera off when you do not intend to take any pictures for a while.

Do not push the lens barrier forcefully against the lens as this may damage the lens or cause it to malfunction.
