About the CHARGE indicator
The CHARGE indicator shows the status of the
battery pack and the charger.
Please refer to the following table if the indicator
flashes abnormally.
About the internal backup battery
i
This camera’s internal battery serves to maintain the date and time set-
tings, as well as the shooting settings. The backup battery will be fully
charged when the batteries are kept in the camera continuously for about 2
days. In the fully charged state, the backup battery will maintain the cam-
era settings for about 7 days.
When not using the camera for a long time, remove the batteries
i
A small amount of power is still used even if the digital camera is turned off,
and it is therefore recommended that the batteries be removed from the
camera if it is not going to be used for a long time. Note that when the bat-
teries are removed for a long period, the time and date settings may be
cleared. Before using your camera again, be sure to confirm that the cam-
era settings are correct.
