Replacing The Date Battery - Canon Powershot A550 Advanced User's Manual

Replacing the Date Battery

If the LCD monitor displays the Date/Time menu when you turn on
the camera, this means that the date battery has run down and the
clock has stopped running. Please purchase a replacement battery
(lithium coin battery CR1220) and install it as follows.
The date battery is preinstalled at the factory and may therefore
expire earlier than its rated lifespan after the camera has been
purchased.
Be particularly careful to keep the date batteries out of the
reach of children. Seek medical assistance immediately if a
child swallows a battery since corrosive battery fluids could
damage the stomach or intestinal wall.
