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.
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 CR2/DL CR2.
To insert the battery:
1 Move the battery compartment cover release knob in the direction of the ar-
row.
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.
Do not apply excessive force when opening or closing the battery compartment cover.
∗
One new lithium battery should be sufficient for approx. 200 exposures (based on our test
∗
conditions).
When traveling, take extra batteries to provide power for extra exposures. This is particu-
∗
larly important if you visit areas where new batteries may be difficult to obtain.
Check the battery capacity symbol before using your camera. (→p.17)
∗
After changing the battery, reset the date to assure accurate date/time recording.
∗
(→p.18)
15
TURNING ON YOUR CAMERA
Before you can use your camera, you must turn the power on. First press the
power supply 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 in
☞
the LCD.
When the power is turned on, the camera is set for automatic mode photography. (→p.27)
☞
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.
16
CHECKING YOUR BATTERY
To determine the condition of the battery in your camera, turn the camera on and
check the battery capacity indicator on the LCD panel.
1 Lit : Battery capacity is OK.
2 Lit : Battery capacity is low. Replace with a new battery.
3 Blinks : Shutter cannot be released because battery is exhausted. Replace
with a new battery.
Check the battery capacity before you using your camera.
∗
The battery can be replaced even while there is a partially-exposed film in the camera.
