Recording is not possible when is indicated. Charge the battery immediately. • The level shown by the battery indicator may change when you switch between the REC mode and PLAY mode. • Leaving the camera for about one day with no power supplied while the battery is dead will cause its date and time settings to be cleared. A message telling you to configure time and date settings will appear the next time you turn on the camera after restoring power. When this happens, configure date and time settings (page 153). • See page 189 for information about battery life and memory capacity. Battery Power Conservation Tips • When you do not need to use the flash, select ? (flash off) for the flash setting (page 45). • Enable the Auto Power Off and the Sleep features to protect against wasting battery power when you forget to turn off the camera (pages 155, 155). • Select "Off" for "Continuous AF" (page 91). • Avoid unnecessary optical zoom operations. 19 Quick Start Basics
