Usage Tips  
If the camera does not work as intended, or if an error  
message is displayed on the screen, and you are unsure  
of what to do, refer to the information below to x the  
problem(s).  
Press the qbutton to switch to the shooting  
mode.  
Wait until #(ash charge) stops blinking before  
taking pictures.  
With prolonged camera use, the internal  
temperature may increase, resulting in automatic  
shutdown. If this occurs, remove the battery  
from the camera and wait until the camera  
has sufciently cooled. The camera’s external  
temperature may also increase during use,  
however this is normal and does not indicate  
malfunction.  
Troubleshooting  
Battery  
“The camera does not work even when batteries are  
installed”.  
Insert recharged batteries in the correct direction.  
“Inserting the battery and the SD/SDHC memory  
card (sold separately)” (p. 12), “Charging the  
battery and setting up using the supplied CD”  
(p. 13), “Charging the battery with the supplied  
USB-AC adapter” (p. 15)  
Monitor  
“Difcult to see”.  
Condensation*1 may have occurred. Turn off the  
power, and wait for the camera body to become  
acclimated to the surrounding temperature and dry  
out before taking pictures.  
Battery performance may have been reduced  
temporarily due to low temperature. Take the  
batteries out of the camera, and warm them by  
putting them in your pocket for a while.  
*1  
Dew drops can form in the camera when it is  
suddenly taken from a cold location into a warm,  
humid room.  
“Vertical lines appear on the screen”.  
Card/Internal memory  
“An error message is displayed”.  
This condition may occur when the camera is  
pointed at an extremely bright subject under a clear  
sky and so on. The lines do not appear, however,  
in the nal image.  
“Error message” (p. 54)  
Shutter button  
“No picture is taken when the shutter button is  
pressed”.  
“The light is caught in the picture”.  
Shooting with ash in dark situations results in an  
image with many ash reections on dust in the air.  
Cancel sleep mode.  
To save battery power, the camera automatically  
goes into sleep mode and the monitor turns off  
if there is no operation for 3 minutes when the  
camera is turned on. No picture is taken even if  
the shutter button is fully pressed in this mode.  
Operate the zoom buttons or other buttons to  
restore the camera from sleep mode before  
taking a picture. If the camera is left for another  
12 minutes, it automatically turns off. Press the  
n button to turn the camera on.
