First Steps : Checking the Battery Level
Note: At low battery levels, you may find that the camera will not record
images under some settings. There may also not be enough power to
charge the flash, in which case the flash will automatically be set to “Off.”
The flash will also be set to “Off” whenever the battery-level indicator
shows the low battery mark ( ).
When the battery level becomes critically low, an alarm will sound (a rapid
beeping which continues for thirty seconds) and the following warning will
appear in the touch-panel display.
BATTERIES ARE LOW
CAMERA WILL POWER DOWN
WITHIN 30 SECONDS
Turn the camera off as quickly as possible (if no action is taken the camera
will turn itself off automatically in thirty seconds) and replace the batteries
before turning the camera back on.
Note: Photographs, sounds, and memos stored in the camera’s memory
will remain even when the batteries are removed and the camera is
unplugged. Refer to “Deleting Images and Recordings from Memory” in
the “Playback” section for information on erasing the contents of memory.
