B Notes on Power Source
• When connecting the camera to a computer to transfer pictures, use a fully charged battery to
prevent the camera from turning off unexpectedly.
• When the camera is connected to a computer via the supplied USB cable with Auto (default
setting) selected for the Charge by computer option in the setup menu, the battery inserted into
the camera is automatically charged using power supplied by the computer (A 152). Pictures
can be transferred while the battery is charging.
• If the AC Adapter EH-62F is used, power can be supplied to the COOLPIX S70 from an electrical
power outlet. Do not, under any circumstances, use another make or model of AC adapter other
than EH-62F. Failure to observe this precaution could result in overheating or in damage to the
camera.
