Open the battery door on the bottom of the camera and insert three AAA alkaline batteries.

Please use high grade Alkaline, Photo Grade Alkaline or rechargeable alkaline batteries
for the best performance with your camera.

may cause damage to the camera.
(Please transfer your pictures to your computer before
you remove the batteries.)

shut it off by pressing and holding the “M/ON/OFF” button for approximately three seconds

you can and be sure there is enough light – if more light is needed, please turn on the flash
feature.
a.
Turn on the flash by holding the “Flash/Down” key on the
- you will see the Flash
icon on the LCD blink for a few seconds and then a Flash symbol with an A will appear
on the LCD – the Auto Flash is now on. The camera will then be in Auto Flash menu
and the camera will adjust the light for the exposure automatically.

The flash icon should NOT have a line through it as that would indicate the flash is in
the off mode.

If the flash icon will not set to auto flash, that typically indicates that your batteries
are low and need to be replaced.
