Checking the Memory Card
If the batteries have been removed from the camera for a long time, when they
are reinserted and the camera is turned on, the message [Battery depleted] may
appear. This can also happen when using the camera for the first time; however
this is not a malfunction. Wait a minute and then turn the camera on again to
reset the camera. The date and time and other settings may also be reset.
Follow the procedure on p.36 to set these settings again.
