When no operation is performed for 1
minute with the lens barrier open, the
camera enters the Sleep mode. This
mode reduces the consumption of
battery power, and automatically
switches off the monitor.

following:
Press the shutter button gently.
Close the lens barrier and open it again.
Press any of the arrow pad keys,

Never attempt to open the card cover or take out the card or battery while the
camera power is on. Otherwise, the image data on the card may be destroyed.
Images stored on the card are saved even after the camera turns off or
the batteries are replaced.
Try to minimize power consumption as much as possible if you don’t
expect to use the camera for a while. Turn the power off by closing the
lens barrier.
