INSERTING BATTERIES

This digital camera uses four AA-size alkaline or Ni-MH batteries. Do not use other types
of AA batteries. The camera should be off when replacing batteries.

Camera notes
After initially inserting a charged battery, do not remove it from the camera for twenty-four
hours; the camera can be off during this period. The main batteries are used to charge an
internal battery, which protects settings when the camera is turned off.
