Installing the Batteries
• AA alkaline, AA lithium and AA nickel manganese batteries are not
rechargeable.
• Do not open the battery/card cover or remove the batteries while
the camera is turned on.
• If you do not intend to use the camera for a long time, remove the batteries.
If the batteries are left in the camera for a long time, they may leak.
• If the batteries have been removed from the camera for a long
time, when they are reinserted and the camera is turned on, the
message [Battery depleted] may appear. This can also happen
when using the camera for the first time; however this is not a
malfunction. Wait a minute and then turn the camera on again to
reset the camera. The date and time may also be reset.
• Insert the batteries correctly. If the batteries are incorrectly
oriented, malfunction may result. If the ends of the batteries look
dirty, wipe them before inserting into the camera.
