• Using Your Batteries

Our laboratory testing has shown that our digital camera models comply with industry standard battery consumption levels (Camera & Imaging Products Association commonly known as CIPA).

All digital cameras are high drain products. For the best performance and prolonged battery life, we recommend the use of high capacity batteries designed for such applications.

Here are some helpful hints to extend battery life considerably by limiting the following activities:

Reviewing the pictures on the LCD Screen

Using the optical viewfinder (if your camera has one) to frame the subject when taking pictures

Excessive use of the flash

Remove batteries from your camera when not in use to prevent battery leakage.

WARNING!

Batteries should be replaced by an adult.

Use recommended or equivalent type of batteries only.

Insert the batteries in the correct orientation.

Remove exhausted batteries from the camera immediately.

Do not short the supply terminals.

Please dispose of the batteries properly.

Do not touch the lens when the camera hangs due to low battery. Please replace the batteries and power on the camera.

These instructions should be retained for future reference.

3 Taking Pictures

Before you take pictures, please read this note first:

NOTE:

Never remove the batteries while a picture is being saved. Doing so will prevent the current picture from being saved and may corrupt other pictures already stored on the camera’s internal memory or a memory card.

• Taking Pictures in Normal Mode

You can take pictures at approximately 1.6 feet (50cm) to infinity.

NOTE:

Most settings are saved by the camera when the power is turned off, so that the same setting is automatically available when the power is turned on again. Make sure you verify your settings when turning the camera on again.

1.Press the button to set the camera to Still Image mode.

2.Frame your subject using the LCD screen.

3Hold the camera steady and slowly press the shutter button down to take your image.
