LCD Panel
The liquid crystal panel of the monitor screen uses high-precision technology that provides a pixel yield in excess of 99.99%. This means that some very small number of pixels may not light or may remain lit at all times. This is due to the characteristics of the liquid crystal panel, and does not indicate malfunction.
Take test shots
Before shooting your final image, shoot a test shot to ensure that the camera is recording correctly.

Changing the Camera Style to Suit Shooting Conditions

360 degrees
You can change the configuration of the camera by opening or closing the frame and rotating the monitor screen panel to suit shooting conditions.
IMPORTANT!
• Do not apply strong pressure to the surface of the monitor screen. Doing so can damage it.
• Never touch the lens with your fingers. Finger smudges, dirt, and other foreign matter on the lens can interfere with proper operation of the camera. Use a blower or other means to keep the lens and flash window free of dirt and dust, and wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth.

Opening and Closing the Frame

The camera’s frame can be rotated 360 degrees as shown in the illustration.
1. With the lens facing towards you, hold
onto the frame.
2. Push the monitor screen panel.
3. Holding the edges of the monitor
screen panel, swing the frame open.
• Do not try to open or close the frame while the monitor screen panel is rotated. Doing so can cause the frame to come into contact with the monitor screen panel and cause malfunction.

Drag
IMPORTANT!
NOTE
Holding your finger against the screen as you drag it up, down, left, or right. Use drag to move a screen image to a different location, and to scroll between images.
Flick
Holding your finger against the screen as you flick it up, down, left, or right. Use flick to scroll forward through images. To scroll forward or back multiple images, first drag in the direction opposite the direction you want to scroll, and then flick in the desired scroll direction.
Spread
Holding your thumb and forefinger against the screen as you spread them out. Use spread to enlarge the screen image.
Squeeze
Holding your thumb and forefinger against the screen as you bring them together. Use squeeze to reduce the size of the screen image.
• Never use a pointed or hard object to perform screen operations. Doing so can damage the screen.

Other Charging Precautions
• With the two charging methods described above, you can charge the camera’s battery without removing it from the camera. Never use any other type of charger device. Attempting to use a different charger can result in unexpected accident.
• This model can be charged only from a USB 2.0 specification USB port.
• USB charging devices and power supply devices are subject to fixed standards. Use of an inferior device or a device that is not up to standard can cause malfunction and/or failure of your camera.
• Operation is not guaranteed in the case of a computer built or modified by you. Even in the case of a commercially available computer, certain USB port specifications may make it impossible to charge via the USB cable.
• A battery that is still warm immediately after normal use may not charge fully. Give the battery time to cool before charging it.
• A battery discharges slightly even when it is not loaded in the camera. Because of this, it is recommended that you charge the battery immediately before you need to use it.
• Charging the camera’s battery may cause interference with TV and radio reception. If this happens, plug the USB-AC adaptor into an outlet that is further away from the TV or radio.
• Actual charging time depends on current battery capacity and charging conditions.
• Do not use the USB-AC adaptor with any other device.
• Never use the power cord with another device.
• Use only the USB-AC adaptor and USB cable specified in this manual for charging. Use of any other type of devices may result in improper charging.

Preparing a Memory Card

*
Though the camera has built-in memory that can be used to store images and movies, you probably will want to purchase a commercially available memory card for greater capacity. The camera does not come with a memory card. Images recorded while a memory card is loaded are saved to the memory card. When no memory card is loaded, images are saved to built-in memory.
• For information about memory card capacities, see page 153.

Supported Memory Cards

– microSD Memory Card – microSDHC Memory Card – microSDXC Memory Card
• The above are supported memory card types as of December
2016.
• This camera supports use of microSD memory cards of the following types and capacities: microSD memory cards up to 2GB; microSDHC memory cards greater than 2GB, up to 32GB; microSDXC memory cards greater than 32GB, up to 2TB. Note that the ability to use any particular card with this camera, even if it satisfies the above capacity and type requirements, is not guaranteed.
Warning!
0 Memory cards are small and present a risk of accidentally being swallowed
by infants and young children. Keep memory cards out of the reach of infants and young children. If a memory card is ever swallowed accidentally, contact a physician immediately.
+
. Memory Card Handling Precautions
Certain types of memory cards can slow down processing speeds. In particular, high­quality movies may not be able to be stored correctly. A slow memory card can take too much time to record data and result in breaks in the image and/or audio during playback. When this happens “ ” (Movie Stop) will be “ ”.

2. Open the [CARD] cover.
3. Load a memory card.
Positioning the memory card as shown in the nearby illustration insert it into the camera’s memory card slot and press until you hear it click into place.
4. Close the [CARD] cover.
IMPORTANT!
• Never insert anything besides a supported memory card (page 27) into the memory card slot.
• Should water or any foreign object ever get into the card slot, immediately turn off the camera, and contact your retailer or nearest CASIO authorized service center.
28
Quick Start Basics
. To replace the memory card
IMPORTANT!
Press the memory card and then release it. This will cause it to pop out of the memory card slot slightly. Pull the card out the rest of the way and then insert another one.
• Turn off the camera before replacing the memory card.
• The operation lamp (page 8) will flash green for some time after you press [p] (Power) to turn off the camera. Never remove the memory card while the operation lamp is flashing green. Doing so can cause the image save operation to fail and even damage the memory card.

To format (initialize) a new memory card

Format a memory card on the camera before using it for the first time.
IMPORTANT!
• Formatting a memory card that already has snapshots or other files on it, will delete its contents. Normally you do not need to format a memory card again. However, if storing to a card has slowed down or if you notice any other abnormality, re-format the card.
• Be sure to use the camera to format a memory card. Formatting a card on a computer will result in a non-SD standard format, which can greatly slow down processing time and cause compatibility, performance, and other problems.
1. Load a memory card (page 28).
2. Turn on the camera and then touch “ ” (Show Icons).
3. Touch “MENU”.
4. Drag upwards and downwards until you find “Setup”, and then touch it.
5. Touch “Format”.
6. Touch “Format” and then touch “Yes”.
This starts the memory card format operation.
