Close the menu by pressing the [MENU] button 2 times after finishing the setting.

Check if the clock setting is correct, after turning the camera off and on.

When a fully charged battery has been inserted for more than 24 hours, the clock setting is stored (in the camera) for at least 3 months even if the battery is removed. (The storing time may be shorter if the battery is not charged sufficiently.)

If more than 3 months has passed, the clock setting will be lost. In this case, set the clock again.

You can set the year from 2000 to 2099. The 24-hour system is used.

When you use a photo printing service, if the date is not set in the camera, it will not be printed, even if the store provides a date printing option to your photo.

For the date print setting, refer to P76.
