Auto Off

The time the camera remains active when no opera-
tions are performed can be chosen from 30 seconds, 1
minute (the default setting), 5 minutes, or 30 minutes.
Regardless of the option chosen, the camera will re-
main active for 3 minutes when menus are displayed,
and for 30 minutes during a slide show.

Format Memory / Format Card

If no memory card is inserted, this option is named For-
mat memory
and formats internal memory. Other-
wise it is named Format card and formats the current
memory card for use in the camera. Note that for-
matting permanently deletes all data, including
protected pictures and any other data that may
be present
. Before formatting, be sure to transfer any
valued pictures to a computer (

Description

Format Card

Memory card performance drops as pictures are recorded and deleted. For
best performance, format memory cards regularly.

Auto Off

When powered by a six-volt 2CR5 (DL245) lithium battery, the camera may become hot
if left on for an extended period. We recommend that you set Auto off to fi ve min-
utes or less when using this type of battery. When powered by an optional EH-54 AC
adapter, the camera will remain on for thirty minutes if no operations are performed,
regardless of the setting chosen for Auto off. If the video cable is connected, video
output will continue indefi nitely after the display has turned off.
