Date/Time battery
• • The camera has a built-in date/time battery (backup battery) that allows
the date/time settings to be retained for about three weeks after the
battery pack has been removed.
• By inserting a charged battery or connecting an AC adapter kit (sold
separately, p. 39) the date/time battery can be charged in about 4 hours
even if the camera is not turned on.
• If the date/time battery is depleted, the Date/Time menu will appear
when you turn the camera on. Follow the steps on p. 19 to set the date
and time.
