Camera Setup
• Make sure that the battery cover lock is
in the lock position. The camera will not
operate unless the lock is secured.
• Remove the battery pack from the
camera whenever you will not use it for
an extended period. Do not remove the
button battery because it is used as the
reserve power source for the date and
time settings.
• When removing battery Pack NB-5H
from the camera, it is helpful to slip
your fingernail or fingertip into the
indent on the bottom of the battery
pack before you gently pull it out.

2CR5 Lithium Batteries
• Please note that using 2CR5 lithium
batteries at low temperatures will
severely limit their performance. Even
new batteries may only provide power
for a few shots. You can obtain more
shots if you warm the battery in your
pocket immediately prior to use. When
operating the camera at close to 32˚F
(0˚C) , keep the LCD panel off and
compose images with the optical
viewfinder.
• Even if the battery charge appears to be
depleted while shooting at low
temperature (“Lb” shows in the display
panel), the battery may still retain a
charge when used at room tempera-
ture.
• Do not use 2CR5 lithium batteries that
have been used in another camera. The
camera may not operate properly.
