We do not recommend or support AA manganese batteries. For acceptable
battery life, and to make sure your camera operates dependably, use the batteries
listed.
Extending battery life
■ See Auto Power Off on page 24.
■ Limit the following activities that quickly deplete battery power:
– Reviewing your pictures on the LCD (see page 8)
– Using the LCD as a viewfinder (see page 6)
– Excessive use of the flash
■ Dirt on the battery contacts can affect battery life. Wipe the contacts with a clean,
dry cloth before loading batteries in the camera.
50 www.kodak.com/go/support
Appendix
■ Battery performance is reduced at temperatures below 41° F (5° C). When using
your camera in cold weather, carry spare batteries and keep them warm. Do not
discard cold batteries that do not work; when they return to room temperature,
they may be usable.
Upgrading your software and firmware
Download the latest versions of the software included on the Kodak EasyShare
software CD and the camera firmware (the software that runs on the camera). See
www.kodak.com/go/c533downloads or www.kodak.com/go/c503downloads.
Additional care and maintenance
■ If the camera has been subjected to inclement weather or you suspect water has
gotten inside the camera, turn off the camera and remove the battery and card.
Allow all components to air-dry for at least 24 hours before using the camera
again.
■ Blow gently on the lens or LCD to remove dust and dirt. Wipe gently with a soft,
lint-free cloth or an untreated lens-cleaning tissue. Do not use cleaning solutions
unless designed specifically for camera lenses. Do not allow chemicals, such as
suntan lotion, to contact painted surfaces.
■ Service agreements may be available in your country. Contact a dealer of Kodak
products for more information.
■ For digital camera disposal or recycling information, contact your local authorities.

and/or limitations stated herein. Such repair service will include all labor as well as
any necessary adjustments and/or replacement parts. Such repair or replacement is

If replacement parts are used in making repairs, these parts may be remanufactured,
or may contain remanufactured materials. If it is necessary to replace the entire
