Power on/off zWhen shooting pictures Power on: Open the lens barrier. The camera turns on in the shooting mode. The lens extends and the subject is displayed on the monitor. If the lens does not extend when the lens barrier is opened, there is a possibility that the barrier is not fully open. Open the lens barrier fully 1 until you feel it click. When using the camera for the first time or after the camera has been left for about a day with the battery removed, the date and time are reset. In this event, "SET DATE & TIME" appears on the monitor when the camera is turned on. "Setting the date and time" (P.30) Press to turn off the monitor. The camera is still on. Power off: Close the lens barrier slightly until it almost touches the lens barrel. The lens barrier stops just before it touches the lens and the lens retracts. Wait until the lens is fully retracted before closing the lens barrier completely. The camera turns off. (The monitor also turns off.)

If the monitor is on, it will automatically turn off. The lens retracts automatically 5 minutes after that. The camera activates again as soon as you lightly press the shutter button or zoom button. Whenever possible, turn the camera off when you do not intend to take any pictures for a while. • Do not push the lens barrier forcefully against the lens as this may damage the lens or cause it to malfunction.
