You can either move the power switch directly from OFF to ON mode, or stop at the SETUP

position first to change one or more settings, then move the switch to ON after you have finished

doing so.

SETUP Mode

In the SETUP mode you can check and change the setting of the BG-526 Camera with the help of

its built-in LCD. These settings, found in the SETUP Menu, let you change the photo or video

resolution,time lapse between photos, switch the time imprint on, etc. Moving the power switch to

the SETUP position will turn on the LCD display, and you will see an information screen that

shows how many images have been taken, the battery level, camera or video mode, etc

NOTE: always move the power switch from OFF to SETUP mode. It is possible that the
camera could lockup if it is switched from ON to SETUP mode. If this occurs, simply move
the switch to OFF and then push it up to SETUP again.
