GETTING STARTED
You can use 2 AAA size batteries (Alkaline, Ni-MH) to power the camera.
Installing Batteries
1. Make sure the camera is off.
2. Slide the battery cover in the direction of the [OPEN]
arrow.
3. Insert the batteries according to the correct polarity
marks (+ or -).
4. Close the battery card cover firmly.
NOTE
Avoid using batteries in extremely cold environments as low temperatures can shorten the
battery life and reduce camera performance. This low temperature will also influence alkaline
battery performance, therefore Ni-MH rechargeable battery is highly recommended.
If you are using the new rechargeable batteries or rechargeable batteries that have not been
used for an extended period of time (batteries that pass the expiry date are exceptions) might
affect the number of pictures that can be taken. Therefore, to maximize their performance and
lifetime, we recommend that you fully charge the batteries and discharge them for at least one
complete cycle before use.
If you will not be using the batteries for an extended period of time, remove them from the
camera to prevent leakage or corrosion.
Never use batteries of different types (together) or mix old and new batteries.
Never use manganese batteries.
Attaching the Hand Strap
To prevent accidental slippage during use, always use the strap.
Attach the camera strap as follows:
1. Thread the small loop of the hand strap through the hand
strap eyelet on the camera.
2. Pull the large loop through the small loop until the strap is
firmly secured
