About the lithium battery
Your camera is supplied with a rechargeable lithium battery installed so as to retain the date and time, etc., regardless of the setting of the POWER switch. The lithium battery is always charged as long as you are using the camera. The battery, however, will get discharged gradually if you do not use the camera. It will be completely discharged in about six months if you do not use the camera at all. Even if the lithium battery is not charged, it will not affect the camera operation. To retain the date and time, etc., charge the battery if the battery is discharged. The following are charging methods:
•Connect the camera to a wall outlet (mains) using the supplied AC power adaptor/charger, and leave the camera with the POWER switch turned off for more than 24 hours.
•Or, install the fully charged battery pack in the camera, and leave the camera with the POWER switch turned off for more than 24 hours.
