Before calling for service
Power supply
There’s no power. • Make sure the battery and AC adaptor are connected
properly. Check the connections again.
(Page 21 of Vol. 1)
Power goes off as soon
as it is turned on. • The battery may have run out.
• If the remaining battery charge display is blinking or
appears, the battery has run out.
• Either recharge the battery or replace the discharged battery
with a fully charged one.
(Page 20 of Vol. 1)
Battery
The battery runs down
quickly. • Make sure the battery is fully charged.
Keep charging until the AC adaptor’s CHARGE lamp goes
out.
(Page 20 of Vol. 1)
• Are you using the battery in a cold place?
The battery is affected by the ambient temperature. Its
operating time is reduced in low-temperatures.
• The battery may have reached the end of its service life.
The battery will become unchargeable. The battery has
a certain service life which varies depending on how the
battery is used. If the battery operates only for a short period
even when it is charged adequately, it has reached the end
of its service life.
The remaining battery
capacity is not displayed
correctly. • The remaining battery capacity display is merely a guideline.
To ensure that remaining battery capacity is displayed
correctly, use the battery completely from a fully-charged
state, and charge the battery again. (Remaining battery
capacity may still not be displayed correctly if the battery has
been used for long periods in high or low temperatures, or if
the battery has been recharged a large number of times.)
Shooting
Cannot start shooting. • Make sure the POWER/MODE switch is ON. (Page 25 of Vol. 1)
Cannot focus
automatically. • You can focus automatically when the auto focus mode is
selected.
• You may be shooting a scene where it is difficult to bring the
subject into focus in the auto focus mode.
If this is the case, focus in the manual focus mode.
It may be hard to bring the subject into focus when
· both close and distant objects are to be shot
· shooting through a dirty window
· shooting in a dark place
· there are sparkling or shiny objects around the subject
· the subject is moving fast
· shooting a scene with minimal contrast
