Recharging the built-in lithium battery
≥If [0] or [--] is indicated when the camera is
turned on, then the built-in lithium battery runs
down. Connect the AC adaptor to the camera or
place the battery on the camera, and the built-in
lithium battery will be recharged. Leave the
camera as is for approx. 24 hours, and the
battery will drive the date and time for approx.
6 months. (Even if the [OFF/ON] switch is set to
[OFF], the battery is still being recharged.)
