CHANGING BATTERIES
Insert the batteries.
• Make sure the positive and negative
battery terminals are orientated as
illustrated on the diagram in the
battery chamber.
This digital camera uses four AA-size alkaline batteries. AA-size Ni-MH batteries can
also be used, and are recommended because of longer life. When using Ni-MH
batteries, fully recharge them with a battery charger suitable for complex electronic
equipment. Please consult your vendor about an appropriate charger.
When replacing batteries, check that the mode dial is
in the off position.
Close the battery-chamber door and slide it back toward the
body (4) to engage the safety catch. Move the lock lever (5)
to the close position .
• After changing the batteries, if the set-time/date message
appears on the monitor, reset the clock and calender in the
custom 2 section of the setup menu (p. 84).
BATTERY CONDITION INDICATOR
Full-battery Icon - the batteries are fully charged. This icon is
displayed for five seconds on the monitor when the camera is
turned on. The icon remains on the data panel.
Blinking low battery icon - when displayed on the data panel
with no other icons, power is insufficient for camera operation.
The shutter will not release. Replace the batteries immediately.
Low battery warning - battery power is very low, but all
functions are operational. The batteries should be replaced as
soon as possible. This warning automatically appears and
remains on the monitor until the batteries are changed.
AUTO POWER SAVE
To conserve battery power, the camera will turn off displays and unnecessary functions
if an operation is not made within a certain period. The LCD monitor will turn off after
thirty seconds. The data panel turns off after one minute. To restore the displays, press
the menu, quick view, display button, or controller, or turn the mode dial to another
position. The length of the auto-power-save period for the data panel can be changed
in the basic section of the setup menu (p. 84).
This camera is equipped with an automatic battery-condition indicator. When the
camera is on, the battery-condition indicator appears on the data panel and monitor.
The monitor icon will change from white to red when battery power is low. If the data
panel and monitor are blank, the batteries may be dead or installed incorrectly.
Open the battery-chamber door by moving the battery-
chamber lock (1) to the open position . Slide the door
forward (2) to release the safety catch; the door should spring
open (3).
