The Clock Battery

The camera’s internal clock-calendar is powered by a separate, rechargeable
power source, which is charged as necessary when the main battery is in-
stalled. If the camera has been stored for an extended period with the main
battery removed, the clock may need to be reset. The clock power source can
provide several days of back-up power after charging for about ten hours.

Removing the Battery

The battery can be removed without affecting pic-
tures on the memory card. Before removing the
battery, turn the camera off. Remove the battery
by hand, holding it between your finger and thumb
as shown at right. Do not use your fingernails.

Alternative Power Sources

To power your camera continuously for extended playback or while the cam-
era is connected to a computer, we recommend the EH-60 AC adapter (avail-
able separately;
