Replacing the Date Battery If the Set Date/Time menu appears when you turn on the camera power, the date battery charge is low and the date and time settings have been lost. Please replace the battery with a generic CR2016 lithium coin battery with the following procedures. Please note that the first date battery may appear to expire relatively quickly after you purchase the camera. This is because it is installed in the camera at the point of manufacture, not when you make the purchase. • Be particularly careful to keep the date batteries out of the reach of children. Seek medical assistance immediately if a child swallows a battery since corrosive battery fluids could damage the stomach or intestinal wall. 1 Turn off the power and slide the battery cover in the direction of the arrows (p. 19). 2 Push point q with your fingertip while pulling the date battery holder out to remove it. 1 3 Groove Insert a fingernail into the groove in the date battery and push it out in the direction of the arrow. 188
