Setting The Date And Time - Sony Cyber-shot DSC-S30 Service Manual

Notes
• The battery life and number of images will be decreased if you use your camera at low
temperatures, use the flash, repeatedly turn the power on/off or use the zoom.
• The capacity of the "Memory Stick" is limited. The above figures are a guide when you
continuously record/play back while replacing the "Memory Stick."
• If sufficient battery remaining time is indicated but the power runs out soon, fully charge the
battery so that the correct battery remaining time appears.
• Do not short the DC plug of the AC power adaptor with a metallic object, as this may cause
malfunction.
• Do not expose the battery pack to water.
