2 Insert the batteries taking note of the polarity (+ / -) .
3 To close the battery chamber cover, push it until it clicks.

Note

Important information about battery usage

Please remove the batteries if the camera will not be used for long periods.

Batteries can lose power over time and are prone to leak if kept inside the camera.

Do not use manganese batteries as they cannot deliver sufficient power.

Low temperatures (below 0^ ) can cause the camera to work for a shorter period of time due to reduced battery performance. The batteries will recover at normal temperatures.

Do not use old and new batteries or different types together.

Extended use of the camera may cause the camera body to become warm.

This is perfectly normal.

If you are planning to use this camera for long periods of time, it is advisable to use an AC adapter.

Using the AC power adapter

• If you have access to a main supply, using an AC Adapter allows the camera to be used

for long periods of time. If you connect the camera to a computer, it is advisable to use an AC adapter rather than the camera's battery, as this will enable extended use.

• Plug the adapter into the connection point (DC 6V IN) on the camera. Please ensure that you use an AC adapter with the correct specification for the camera.

• Failure to do so may affect your warranty.

WARNING

• Always turn off the power before taking the AC adapter out of the main supply.
• Keep the metallic part of camera away from any metallic material to prevent fatal damage.

Auto power off in each mode

This camera will automatically switch off when not in use for a period time.

Mode	Auto power off
RECORD mode	3 Minutes
PLAY mode	3 Minutes (excluding SLIDE SHOW)
SETUP mode	3 Minutes
DELETE mode	3 Minutes
PC mode	X

Inserting CF CARD

If your camera doesn't have enough space for image storage, insert a CF CARD.

Pull the card cover in the direction of the arrow to open.
2 Insert the card towards the arrow. The front side of the CF CARD(red arrow printed) and front side of camera should face the same direction when card is inserted.
3 To close the CF CARD cover, push the CF CARD cover in the opposite direction of the arrow until you hear a click.

Image resolution	Recorded picture quality	File format	Number of shots
L (1280×960 pixels)	Super fine quality	.JPG	16±1
	Fine quality	.JPG	24±1
	Normal quality	.JPG	48±2
S (640×480 pixels)	Super fine quality	.JPG	33±2
	Fine quality	.JPG	66±2
	Normal quality	.JPG	134±4

The number of normal shots can vary according to the picture content.

Instructions on how to use CF CARD

Using a new CF CARD for the first time

• Before using the CF CARD, it must be initialized.
• Initializing prepares the CF CARD for recording data.
  For more details, please refer to the page 44 (FORMAT MEDIA).

Preserving the CF CARD data

• If the card is subjected to any of the following, the recorded data may become corrupted:
• When the CF CARD is used incorrectly.
