Getting started
Loading batteries
• Manganese (zinc-carbon) batteries cannot be used.
• If the battery power runs out while the camera is connected to a
PC, the image data may be lost or damaged. You are
recommended to use the AC adapter when transferring images to a
PC. Do not connect or disconnect the AC adapter while the camera
is communicating with the PC.
• Do not remove or load batteries or connect or disconnect the AC
adapter while the camera is turned on. Doing so could affect the
camera’s internal settings or functions.
• Power is consumed continuously during the conditions described
below. This could make batteries run out of power quickly.
• Turning on the monitor.
• Repeated auto-focus by depressing the shutter button halfway.
• When the camera is connected to a PC.
• When using an AC adapter, power is supplied to the camera by the
AC adapter even if batteries are loaded in the camera. The AC
adapter does not charge batteries in the camera.
• Carefully read the separate-volume Safety Precaution before use.
