GETTING STARTED
You can use either 2 AA size batteries (Alkaline, Ni-MH) or
an AC power adapter
(optional accessory) to power
the camera. Battery power is convenient for recording
images or video clips while AC adapter power is recommended for transferring
images to your computer.
Installing the batteries
1. Make sure the camera is off.
2. Slide the battery/SD card cover in the direc-
tion of the OPEN arrow.
3. Insert the batteries according to the correct
polarity marks (+ or -).
4. Close the battery/SD card cover firmly.
NOTE
• If you won’t be using the batteries for an extended period of time, remove them from the ca-
mera to prevent leaks or corrosion.
• Never use manganese batteries.
• Never use different types of batteries (together) or mix old and new batteries.
• Avoid using batteries in extremely cold environments as low temperatures can shorten the
battery life and reduce camera performance.
Using the AC power adapter
(optional accessory)
1. Make sure the camera is off.
2. Open the DC IN jack cover and connect one
end of the AC power adapter to the DC IN
jack on the camera.
3. Connect the other end to an electrical outlet.
• Make sure to use only the specified AC power adapter for the camera. Otherwise, it may cause
damages to the camera, which is not covered under the warranty.
• To prevent unexpected auto power off resulting from no battery power left during the process
of transferring your images to the computer, use the AC power adapter as a power supply.
