If the menu does not appear when you press the MENU button, press the MONITOR button until the LCD monitor comes on. Items can be highlighted using the zoom buttons and selected using the shutter-release button. To clear a menu from the screen, highlight BK and press the shutter-release button, or press the MENU button until the menu disap- pears.

The clock-calendar is powered by a separate, rechargeable battery, which is charged as necessary when the main batteries are installed. If the camera has been stored with the main batteries removed for a long period of time, the clock may need to be reset. Once the main batteries have been reinserted, the clock battery will recharge in several hours, during which time the batteries should be left in the camera.
