Chapter 7: Powering Your Camera
The HP PhotoSmart 215 digital camera can be powered by batteries or an HP
approved AC power adapter. For convenience, use the batteries when you are taking
photos. To preserve battery power, use an AC adapter (purchase separately) when
you are reviewing photos on the image LCD for an extended period of time, or when
you are transferring photos from the camera to your computer.
Determining if the Batteries Need to be Changed
The battery icon on the camera’s status LCD indicates the battery level. There are three
levels of battery charge: Full, Partially-charged, and Low/Empty. If the battery icon
shows that the battery is Low/Empty, it is time to replace the batteries. A blinking
Low/Empty battery appears when the battery is too low to take a picture.
