Troubleshooting
If you experience trouble with your camera, try the following solutions.
Be aware that by sending the camera for repair, you give consent that the contents of the
internal memory may be checked.
The battery remaining indicator is incorrect, or sufficient battery remaining
indicator is displayed but the power runs out too quickly.
• This phenomenon occurs when you use the camera in an extremely hot or cold location.
• When using alkaline batteries/Oxy Nickel Primary Battery (sold separately), the displayed
time remaining may not be correctly indicated.
• The batteries are discharged. Insert new batteries or charged Nickel-Metal Hydride batteries
(sold separately) (page 8).
• When using the Nickel-Metal Hydride batteries, the poles of batteries or the terminals of the
battery cover are dirty so the batteries are not charged sufficiently. Clean them with a cotton
swab, etc.
• When using the Nickel-Metal Hydride batteries, the displayed time remaining differs from the
current one due to the memory effect, etc. Fully discharge and then charge the batteries to
correct the display.
• The batteries are dead. Replace them with new ones (page 8).
