Charging the Date/Time Battery
z
The camera has a built-in rechargeable lithium
battery that maintains the date, time and other
camera settings. This battery recharges when the
main battery pack is inserted into the camera.
Camera Body Temperature
If your camera is used for prolonged periods, the
camera body may become warm. Please be aware
of this and take care when operating the camera for
an extended period.
About the LCD Monitor
The LCD monitor is produced with extremely high-
precision manufacturing techniques. More than
99.99% of the pixels operate to specification. Less
than 0.01% of the pixels may occasionally misfire or
appear as red or black dots. This has no effect on
the recorded image and does not constitute a
malfunction.
Video Format
Please set the camera's video signal format to the
one used in your region before using it with a TV
monitor (p. 69).
Language Setting
Please see page 26 to change the language setting.
When you first purchase the camera, place a
charged battery pack in it or use the AC adapter kit
(sold separately) for at least 4 hours to charge the
date/time battery. It will charge even when the
camera power is turned off.
z
If the Date/Time menu appears when the camera
power is turned on, it means that the date/time
battery charge is depleted. Recharge it as
described above.
