GETTING STARTED

You can use either 2 AA size batteries (Alkaline, Ni-MH) or an AC power adapter (optional accessory) to power the camera. Battery power is convenient for recording images or video clips while AC adapter power is recommended for transferring images to your computer.

Installing the batteries

1.Make sure the camera is off.

2.Slide the battery/SD card cover in the direc- tion of the OPEN arrow.

3.Insert the batteries according to the correct polarity marks (+ or -).

4.Close the battery/SD card cover firmly.

NOTE

If you won’t be using the batteries for an extended period of time, remove them from the ca- mera to prevent leaks or corrosion.

Never use manganese batteries.

Never use different types of batteries (together) or mix old and new batteries.

Avoid using batteries in extremely cold environments as low temperatures can shorten the battery life and reduce camera performance.

Using the AC power adapter (optional accessory)

1.Make sure the camera is off.

2.Open the DC IN jack cover and connect one end of the AC power adapter to the DC IN jack on the camera.

3.Connect the other end to an electrical outlet.

NOTE

Make sure to use only the specified AC power adapter for the camera. Otherwise, it may cause damages to the camera, which is not covered under the warranty.

To prevent unexpected auto power off resulting from no battery power left during the process of transferring your images to the computer, use the AC power adapter as a power supply.
