LOADING THE BATTERIES

Low Battery Warning

When the batteries are nearly exhausted, the low battery

symbol appears on the LCD panel to warn you. Replace the batteries as soon as possible.

MEMO

See page 23 for replacing the batteries.

Even if the low-battery symbol appears, exposure will be correct as long as the shutter can be released. It is recommended that you replace the batteries as soon as possible.

When the low battery warning starts blinking, the shutter cannot be released and no indication appears in the viewfinder.

If the camera has not been used for a long time, the LCD panel may

still display the low battery warning even with a new set of batteries. In this situation, turn off the camera then turn it on and press the shutter release button halfway down. When the low battery warning turns off, you can continue using the camera.
