Getting Started; Inserting Batteries - Vivitar Vivicam 2655 User Manual

Getting Started

Before you start taking digital pictures with your camera, insert the (AA-size Alkaline)
batteries or connect the camera with its power adapter.
Note
When you use your camera as a video camera for your PC, you won't need batteries or the
power adapter. The camera absorbs power from your computer through the USB port.

Inserting Batteries

1. On the bottom of the camera, slide the bat-
tery door in the direction indicated by the
arrow to open it.
2. Insert two (2) AA-size batteries as indicated
on the inner side of the battery door.
3. Close the battery door and turn on the
camera.
If you are using new batteries with your
camera, the Battery Power icon on the LCD
panel will be fully shaded.
After using the camera for some time and the
battery power becomes low, only the lower
portion of the Battery Power icon will appear
shaded. This indicates that the batteries are
weak and need to be replaced.
Helpful Tips
Remove the batteries if the camera is not used for an extended period of time to prevent
leaks or corrosion.
Never use manganese batteries. Recommended battery types are PANASONIC, TOSHIBA or
DURACELL ULTRA alkaline or rechargeable battery.
Never mix old and new batteries.
Low temperatures (under 0 C or 32 F) reduce the output efficiency of batteries, thereby
shortening the operation time of the camera.
