Power Save Function
◆
If the camera is not used for 2 minutes, this function automatically switches the camera off. When this
function is active, it also switches off the LCD monitor to reduce power consumption if the camera is not
used for 30 seconds (See P.51 for details). If the camera is then left unused for a further period (2
minutes), the Power Save function automatically switches the camera off. To switch the camera back
on, slide the Power switch to the side to turn the camera off briefly and then turn it back on.

Checking the remaining battery charge

●
!
The information above is an approximate guide for photography mode. Depending on the camera mode and the type
of batteries used, the transition from “
C” to “V” may occur more quickly.
●
!
When the batteries runs flat, “V” is displayed and camera operation automatically stops. When this occurs, the
camera may work if you switch it on again even without loading new or fully charged batteries. However, this may
cause camera faults such as the camera switching itself off without retracting the lens. Always load new or fully
charged batteries.
●
!
Due to the nature of the battery, the battery low warning may appear early when the camera is used in cold locations.
This is normal and does not indicate a fault. Try warming the batteries in your pocket or a similar location before use.
“C” is displayed as a small icon on the right-hand
side of the LCD monitor.
V appears as a large icon
on the LCD monitor.
