Power Supply
• Use only the special NP-20 rechargeable lithium ion battery to power this camera. Use of any other type of battery is not
supported.
• This camera does not have a separate battery for the clock. The date and time settings of the camera are cleared
whenever power is totally cut off (from both the battery and USB cradle). Be sure to reconfigure these settings after
power is interrupted.
LCD Panel
• The LCD panel is a product of the latest LCD manufacturing technology that provides a pixel yield of 99.99%. This means
that less than 0.01% of the total pixels are defective (they do not turn on or always remain turned on).
Lens
• Never apply too much force when cleaning the surface of the lens. Doing so can scratch the lens surface and cause
malfunction.
• You may sometimes notice some distortion in certain types of images, such as a slight bend in lines that should be
straight. This is due to the characteristics of lens, and does not indicate malfunction of the camera.

the PCB.
<Writing the restoration program 1>
1. Copy the following software to the root directly of the SD card.
Restoration software: rom836_051221.lbn
Firmware:EX-S600.bin
2. Change the name as follows;
“rom836_051221.lbn” to “saturn.bin”
3. Insert the SD card into the camera.
