On internal rechargeable button battery

This camera has an internal rechargeable button battery for maintaining the date and time and other settings regardless of whether the power is on or off.

This rechargeable button battery is continually charged as long as you are using the camera. However, if you use the camera for only short periods it discharges gradually, and if you do not use the camera at all for about one month it becomes completely discharged. In this case, be sure to charge this rechargeable button battery before using the camera.

However, even if this rechargeable button battery is not charged, you can still use the camera as long as you do not record the date and time.

Charging method

Install charged batteries, or connect the camera to a wall outlet (wall socket) using the AC Adaptor (not supplied), and leave the camera for 24 hours or more with the power off.

The rechargeable button battery is located behind a separate cover inside the battery insertion slot. Never remove the rechargeable button battery.
