QuickStart Guide

PREPARING THE CAMERA FOR USE

Before you begin using your Olympus Digital camera…

a.

Loading the battery

Note: The batteries and xD-Picture card 

compartments are accessed by opening the 

respective compartment covers.

• Close the lens barrier.
• Slide the battery compartment cover to the direction of the 

arrow, and lift open the cover as shown in the illustration.

• Insert the batteries into the compartment.

• Close the battery compartment cover so that it pushes the 

battery in and slide the cover while pressing the   mark.

Note: If the battery compartment cover is hard to 

close, do not force it. Press   on the cover firmly 

to close the cover, and then slide it into position.

• To remove the batteries, make sure that the monitor and the 

lamps at the side of the viewfinder are off. 

b.

Inserting the xD-Picture Card

The xD-Picture Card is where the camera stores your pictures 

and is available in a variety of memory capacities. The pictures 

you take with the camera remain on the xD-Picture Card even 

when the camera is turned off and/or the batteries are removed.

• Open the card cover.

• Face the card the correct way and insert it into the card slot.

• Insert the xD-Picture Card into the spring-loaded card slot as 

shown in the illustration. Push the card fully into the slot. The card 

will lock into place when fully inserted.

• To remove, push the card all the way in to unlock it, then let it return 

slowly.

• Close the card cover securely.

Confirm you have installed the battery and xD-Picture Card 
properly by pressing 

. The “NO PICTURE” message should be displayed in the monitor. Turn 

the camera off by pressing 

 again.

minutes of non-use.
