Troubleshooting
Problem What to check
The power does not
turn on.
The status indicator
is flashing while
using the battery.
Is the battery sufficiently charged?
Power shuts off on
its own.
To conserve the battery, power automatically shuts
off if the unit is not operated for about 5 minutes. To
resume unit use, set the mode dial to [OFF] and then
the desired mode position.
When [POWER SAVE] is set to [OFF], power does
not shut off automatically. (P.84)
Power shuts off as
soon as it is turned
on.
Is the battery run down?
Charge the battery if the remaining battery life
indication is flashing or the [LOW BATTERY] message
appears on the LCD monitor. (P.22)
The battery runs
down quickly.
Is the battery sufficiently charged?
Is the unit being used in low temperatures?
The battery is affected by ambient temperature. In
cold places, battery availability shortens.
Is the battery at the end of its service-life?
If the battery lasts only a short while when fully
charged, it has reached the end of its service-life.
The battery is
swollen.
The lithium ion battery used with this unit may swell if
charged/discharged often, but this is no risk to safety.
The unit cannot be
operated though it
is turned on.
The unit does not
operate normally.
Is the LCD monitor open?
Check that the card access lamp is out, then eject
the SD card, remove the battery or disconnect the
AC adaptor, wait about 1 minute, then reinsert the
battery or reconnect the AC adaptor. Then about
1 minute later, shut power off and turn back on.
(Performing the above operation while the SD card
is being accessed can damage data.)
