CHECKING THE BATTERY LEVEL
If batteries or rechargeable batteries have been placed in the
camera, the camera automatically checks the level and dis-
plays it on the LCD screen.
Indicator Message
The batteries are fully charged.
The batteries are no longer fully charged, but
the camera is completely functional.
The batteries are exhausted.
To help extend battery life, the camera automatically shuts
down if left unused for several minutes (see page 15).
USING THE AC POWER ADAPTER
If you have access to an AC outlet, using the
AC adapter will let you use the camera with-
out draining the batteries. If you connect the
camera to a computer, you should use the AC
adapter.
• Plug the adapter into the connection
point (DC IN) on the camera.
 Always turn off your camera’s power before taking
the AC adapter out of the AC outlet. As with all elec-
tronic devices, safety is important. Ensure that nei-
ther the camera nor the adapter comes into contact
with water or metallic materials.
