Turning On Power for the First Time
The first time you load a battery into the camera, a screen
appears for configuring screen text language, date, and time
settings. Use the procedure under “Configuring Display
Language, Date, and Time Settings” (page 11) to configure
the settings correctly.
IMPORTANT!
• Failure to set the date and time will cause the wrong
date and time data to be recorded with images.
• If you make a mistake when configuring the language,
date, and time settings, you can change the settings
(pages 210, 214).
