Keeping correct time
A separate lithium button battery is used by the
camera to power the internal clock. When turning
the power dial to CAM or PLAY from OFF, if the
message "Date & Time not set" appears, it is time
to charge the lithium button battery.
Inquire about charging the battery at the store
where you bought the camera or at any Sony
service center.
