Auto-power-off function

Your camera automatically switches itself off when you do not use it for
more than 2 minutes as a way to conserve batteries and to save power
when you use the optional AC power adapter.

IMPORTANT

The auto-power-off function does not operate in Computer mode.

To disable the auto-power-off function in all modes, hold down the action
button while turning on the camera. The camera will continue to use battery
power even if you do not use it for several minutes. When you turn off the
camera and then turn it back on, auto-power-off is again enabled.

It is especially good to disable auto-power-off when you are using a television
to view images or when you are recording a video; you do not want the
camera to turn off during those operations.

IMPORTANT

You should always use the optional power adapter when you

disable the auto-power-off function.
