1. PRELIMINARY STEPS

ATTACHING THE STRAP

Slip the thin cord on the carrying strap through the strap lug on the side of the camera leaving a loop. Slide the thick part of the strap through this loop and pull tight. Take up any slack to make sure the strap is securely attached to the camera.

8
Do not use a strap made for cellular phones or similar electronic products. These straps are usually too light or weak to hold your camera securely. For safety, use only straps designed for cameras.

INSERTING THE BATTERY

Your camera requires one 3V lithium battery,
type CR123A/DL 123A.

To insert the battery:
1 Move the battery compartment cover release knob in the direction of the arrow. 2 Flip open the battery compartment cover.
3 Insert the battery following the instructions shown in the diagram on the inside of the
battery compartment cover. Important: Pay careful attention to the polarity of the battery as indicated by the , and . markings on the battery. The battery must be inserted the correct way or the camera will not function.
4 When the battery has been inserted correctly, close the battery compartment cover by
pressing it until it snaps into place. If it does not snap into place, do not force it but recheck the position of the battery to make sure it fits properly.
9
Do not apply excessive force when opening or closing the battery compartment cover.
One new lithium battery should be sufficient for approx. 350 exposures (based on our test conditions).
When traveling, take extra batteries to provide power for extra exposures. This is particularly important if you visit areas where new batteries may
be difficult to obtain. Check the battery capacity symbol before using your camera. (p.12)
After changing the battery, reset the date to assure accurate date/time recording. (p.13)

TURNING ON YOUR CAMERA

Before you can use your camera, you must turn the power on. First press the power button which turns on the power. Pressing this button a second time will turn the power off.
When you turn your camera on, the lens cover will open and the initial display will appear on the
LCD. When you are finished using your camera, turn the power off to conserve your battery. If the
power supply is left on for more than 7 minutes without the camera being used, the camera will automatically turn itself off.
Before you turn the camera on, make sure that the lens is not blocked to prevent any interfer­ence with the lens movement as it extends into its picture-taking position.
