This product features an internal memory with a capacity of approximately 14 MB. Please note the following points regarding the internal memory.
• This product cannot be used with external memory.
• Further recording is not possible when the internal memory is full. Format the memory (delete all) after
downloading the images to your PC or make space by deleting unwanted images.
• Back up important data.
• Do not use a PC to change the property (read-only) of the files (image data) stored in the internal
memory. This may cause improper operation when deletion or other operations are executed on the
camera.
• Do not use a PC to change the file name of image data or directory names stored in the internal
memory, and do not write files other than the image data produced by the camera to the internal
memory. Not only will the camera not be able to play back modified or new images written to the

AAA alkaline batteries (supplied)
Rechargeable AAA nickel-hydrogen batteries (sold separately)
Inserting the AAA batteries
Close the lens cover.
1
Open the battery cover by sliding it in the direction of
the arrow.
2
Insert the 2 AAA batteries with the poles aligned with
the indications (+/-) inside the battery compartment.
1
Caution
Inserting batteries with the poles oriented incorrectly can cause battery
fluid leakage and generation of heat that can result in personal injury as
well as soiling, and/or damage to the camera.

Battery life (reference)
Recording
(LCD monitor on)
AAA alkaline batteries
AAA nickel-hydrogen batteries
* Under Konica test conditions (room temperature, normal humidity; picture quality: Super Fine mode;
flash: one full flash in two image recordings; recording operation: continuous recording at 20 sec.
intervals; zoom operation: none)
Note:
• Data may be corrupted if the battery cover is opened during operation without the lens cover being closed.
• Remaining battery level is indicated in two steps by and . It is time to replace the
batteries when the indicator appears. When replacing the AAA batteries, replace both at the
same time.
• Remaining battery level may not always be indicated correctly when using AAA nickel-hydrogen
batteries. Sometimes it is possible to continue recording even when the indicator is shown.
• Do not mix old and new batteries.
• Battery life varies according to the brand and grade.
• Do not mix batteries of different capacities, types, or brands.
• The values mentioned in “Battery life (reference)” are reference values and are not guaranteed. Especially
for alkaline batteries, depending on the brand, or even for batteries of the same brand, the service life may
become extremely short as you approach the “use before date”, and the environment of use may cause
differences in inner electrical resistance and capacity that will also shorten service life. Operation at low
temperatures should be avoided as much as possible, and the use of fresh batteries is recommended.
• Battery life may decrease due to bad contact if the +/- poles of the batteries are contaminated by oil
or grease from fingerprints. Always wipe batteries with a soft, dry cloth before use.
