• The CompactFlash card cannot be changed while the camera is on and
connected to a computer. Confirm that the correct card is in the camera.
Set the function dial to "PC" and turn on the camera.

• The function dial must be set to the PC position before the camera is
connected to a computer.
• The PC mode works in both the recording and the playback mode. To turn on
the camera open the lens cover (recording mode) or press the display/enter
button (playback mode).
Attach the wider plug of the USB cable to the camera.

• Make sure the plug is firmly attached.
• "USB" and the arrow should be faceup.
Attach the other end of the USB cable to the computer's rear USB port.

The camera should be connected directly to the computer's rear USB port. Attaching
the camera to a USB hub may prevent the camera from operating properly.
If the computer does not recognise the camera, disconnect the cam-
era and restart the computer. Repeat the connection procedure above.
A fresh set of batteries should be used when
the camera is connected to a computer. The
use of the AC adaptor (sold separately) is rec-
ommended over the use of batteries.
