• When a fully charged battery has been
inserted for more than 24 hours, the clock
setting is stored (in the camera) for at
least 3 months even if the battery is
removed. (If you insert a battery that is not
sufficiently charged, the length of time that
the clock setting is stored may be shorter.)
The clock setting is canceled after this
length of time. In this case, set the clock
again. (P28)
• Do not remove the card or the battery
while the card is being accessed. The
data may be damaged. (P22)
• Turn the camera off and then remove
the battery after the LCD monitor and
the status indicator (green) turn off. If
you remove the battery while the
camera is on, the settings on the
camera may not be stored properly.
• The supplied battery is designed only
for the camera. Do not use it with any
other equipment.
