For Your Safety
Power Supp ly and Batter y
* Confirm yo ur batter y type before rea d-
ing the follo wing descriptions .
The follow ing explains proper use of batteries and how to prolong their life. Incorrect use of bat teries can cause shorter battery life, as well as leakage, excessive heat, fire or explo­sion.
Camera uses the Rechargeable
1
Lithium-ion Battery
* When shippe d, the battery is not
fully charged. Alw ays charge the batter y before using it.
* When car rying the battery, install it
in a digital camera or keep it in the soft case.
Ba ttery Fe atures
• The batter y gradually loses its charge even when not used. Use a batter y that has been charged recently (in the last day or two) to take pictures.
• To maximize the life of the batter y, turn the camera off as quickl y as possible when it is not being used.
• The number of available frames will be lower in cold locations or at low temperatures. Take along a spare fully charged battery. You can also increase the amount of power pro­duced by putting the batter y in your pocket or another warm place to heat it and then loading it into the camera just before you take a picture.
If you are using a heating pad, take
care not to place the battery di­rectly against the pad. The camera may not operate if you use a de­pleted bat tery in cold conditions.
Ch arging th e Batter y
• The bat tery can be charged at ambient temperatures b etween 0°C and +40 °C (+32°F and +104°F). Refer to the Own er’s Manual for the time of charging battery.
• You should charge the battery at an ambient temperature be­tween +10°C and +35°C (+50°F and +95°F). If you charge the batter y at a temperature outside this range, charging takes longer because the performance of the battery is im ­paired.
• You cannot charge the battery at temperatures of 0°C (+32°F) or be­low.
• The Rechargeable Lithium-ion Bat­tery does not need to be fully dis­charged or exhausted flat before being charged.
• The bat tery may feel warm after it has been charged or immediately after being used. This is perfectly normal.
• Do not recharge a fully charged batter y.
Ba ttery Li fe
At normal temperatures, the bat­tery can be used at least 300 times. If the time for which the battery provides power shortens markedly,
this indicates that the bat tery has reached the end of its effective life and should be replaced.
No tes on stora ge
• If a battery is stored for long periods while charged, the per formance of the battery can be impaired. If the batter y will not be us ed for some time, run the bat tery out before storing it.
• If you do not intend to us e the camera for a long period of time, remove the battery from the cam­era.
• Store the batter y in a cool place.
- The b attery should be s tored in
a dry location with an ambient temperature between +15°C and +25°C (+59°F and +77°F).
- Do not leave the battery in hot or
extremely cold places.
Ha ndling th e Battery
Cauti ons for Your Sa fety:
• Do not carry or store battery with metal objects such as necklaces or hairpins.
• Do not heat the battery or throw it into a fire.
• Do not attempt to take apart or change the battery.
• Do not recharge the battery with chargers other those specified.
• Dispose of used b attery promptly.
• Do not drop the b attery or other­wise subjec t it to strong impacts.
• Do not expose the bat tery to wa­ter.
• Always keep the battery terminals clean.
• Do not store batteries in hot plac­es. Also, if you use the battery for a long perio d, the camer a body and the battery itself will become warm. This is normal.
Camera uses AA Alkaline,
2
Rechargeable Ni-MH (nickel-metal hydride) or AA lithium batteries
* For details on the batteries that
you can use, refer to the Owner’s Manual of your camera.
C autions fo r Using Batt ery
• Do not heat the batteries or throw them into a fire.
• Do not carry or store batteries with metal objects such as necklaces or hairpins.
• Do not expose the batteries to wa­ter, and keep batteries from getting wet or stored in moist locations.
• Do not attempt to take apart or change the bat teries, including batter y casings.
• Do not subject the batteries to strong impacts.
• Do not use batteries that are leak­ing, deformed, discolored.
• Do n ot store batteries in warm or humid places.
• Keep the batteries out of reach of babies and small children.
• Make sure that the batter y polarity (C and D) is correct.
vii
For Your Safety
• Do not use new with us ed batter­ies. Do not use charged and dis­charged bat teries together.
• Do not use different types or brands of batteries at the same time.
• If you do not intend to us e the camera for a long period of time, remove the batteries from the camera. Note if the camera is left with the bat teries removed, the time and date settings are cleared.
• The batteries feel warm right af­ter being used. Before removing the batteries, turn the camera off and wait for the batteries to cool down.
• Since batteries do not work well in cold weather or locations, warm the batteries by placing them in­side your garments b efore use. Batteries do not work well when cold. They will work again when the temperature returns to normal.
• Soil (such as fingerprints) on the batter y terminals makes the bat­teries charge less reducing the number of images. Carefully wipe the battery terminals with a sof t dry cloth b efore loading.
If any liquid at all leaks from the batteries, wipe the battery compartment thoroughly and then load new batteries .
If any battery fluid comes into contact with your hands or clothing, f lush the area thor­oughly with water. Note that batter y fluid can c ause loss of eyesight if it gets into your eyes. If this occurs, d o not rub your eyes. Flush the fluid out with clean water and contact your physician for treatment.
Us ing the AA-s ize Ni-MH bat teries
corre ctly
• Ni-MH batteries left unused in storage for long periods can be­come “deac tivated”. Also, repeat­edly charging Ni-MH batteries that are only partially discharged can c ause them to suffer from the “memory effec t”. Ni-MH batteries that are “deactivated ” or affected by “memor y” suffer from the prob­lem of only providing power for a short time after being charged. To prevent this prob lem, discharge and recharge them several times using th e camera’s “Discharging rechargeable batteries” function.
Deactivation and memor y are spe-
cific to Ni-MH batteries an d are not in fact battery faults.
See Own er’s Manual for the proce-
dure for “Discharging rechargeable batteries”.
CAUTION
Do not use the “Discharging re­chargeable bat teries” function when alkaline batteries being used.
• To charge Ni-MH batteries, use the quick battery charger (sold sepa­rately). Refer to th e instructions supplied with the charger to make sure that the charger is used cor­rectly.
• Do not use the battery charger to charge other batteries.
• Note that the batteries feel w arm after being charged.
• Due to the way the camera is con­structed, a small amount of current is used even when the camera is turned off. Note in particular that leaving Ni- MH batteries in the camera for a long perio d will over­discharge the batteries and may render them unusable even after recharging.
• Ni-MH batteries will self-discharge even when not used, and the time for which they can be used may be shortened as a result.
• Ni-MH batteries will deteriorate rapidly if over-discharged (e.g. by discharging the batter ies in a flashlight). Use the “Discharging re­chargeable batteries” function pro­vided in the camera to discharge the batteries.
• Ni-MH batteries have a limited service life. If a battery can only be used for a short time even af ter repeated discharge- charge c ycles, it may have reached the end of its service life.
Di sposing o f Batteri es
• When disposing of batteries, do so in accordance with your local waste disposal regulations.

• Panoramas are created from multiple frames. The camera may in some cases record a greater or lesser angle than selected or be unable to stitch the frames together perfectly. The last part of the panorama may not be recorded if shooting ends before the panorama is complete.
• Shooting may be interrupted if the camera is panned too quickly or too slowly. Panning the camera in a direction other than that shown cancels shooting.
• The desired results may not be achieved with mov­ing subjects, subjects close to the camera, unvarying subjects such as the sky or a field of grass, subjects that are in constant motion, such as waves and wa­terfalls, or subjects that undergo marked changes in brightness. Panoramas may be blurred if the subject is poorly lit.
For Bes t Results
For best results, move the camera in a small circle at a steady speed, keeping the camera horizontal and being careful only to pan in the direction shown by the guides. If the desired results are not achieved, try panning at a different speed.

N Using the Flash (Intelligent Flash)
When the flash is used, the camera’s Intelligent Flash system instantly analyzes the scene based on such factors as the brightness of the subject, its position in the frame, and its distance from the camera. Flash output and sensitivity are adjusted to ensure that the main subject is correctly exposed while preserving the effects of ambient background lighting, even in dimly-lit indoor scenes. Use the flash when lighting is poor, for example when shooting at night or indoors under low light.
Raise the flash.

N ISO
Control the camera’s sensitivity to light. Higher values can be used to reduce blur when light­ing is poor; note, however, that mottling may appear in pictures taken at high sensitivities. If AUTO, AUTO (800), or AUTO (400) is selected, the camera will adjust sensitivity automatically in response to shooting conditions. The maximum values that will be selected by the camera at set­tings of AUTO (800) and AUTO (400) are 800 and 400 respectively. Settings other than AUTO are shown by an icon in the display.
