Inserting batteries
The supplied wireless controller can operate the
camera from a distance of up to 16 feet (5 m).
Point it at the camera’s remote sensor while you
press the buttons.
The tally lamp lights up to let you know that the
camera is in range and responding to your
commands.
There are six functions which can only be operated
using the wireless controller:
Special playback (p. 29)
Photo/date search (p. 67)
Zero set memory (p. 68)

16ft
Insert two AA batteries, following the = and -
markings. Be careful not to reverse the polarity of
the batteries.
Notes:
When using the wireless controller in brightly lit places or outdoors, the effective range will be less.
The camera may have difficulty picking up the remote control signals at extremely close range.
Do not leave the controller exposed to direct sunlight, or in hot or humid places.
When the batteries run out, replace them both together.
Make sure the shoulder strap does not obstruct the remote sensor.
