Installing the Batteries and Checking the Battery Level
Checking the Battery Level
Check the battery level after replacing the batteries and before using the
camera.
Turn the Command Dial to any
setting except <>.
* The camera will then turn on and the
LCD panel will display one of the
following battery level icons:
$
: Battery level OK.
Q : The battery level is low. Keep
spare batteries handy.
Battery exhaustion is
imminent.
Replace the batteries. (See
page 7.) In this case, the
shutter button will not function.

* The Battery Service Life table above is based on Canon's testing
conditions using an EF 28-80mm f/3.5-5.6 II lens and new batteries.
* Operating the camera without film will still consume battery power. It will
reduce the number of rolls that can be taken with the batteries.
If nothing is displayed on the LCD panel, the batteries may have been
installed incorrectly. Take out the batteries and install correctly (See page 16).
For places where CR2 batteries may not be easily available, take spare
batteries with you. Also carry spare batteries for extended shooting sessions.
