This camera uses one Olympus lithium ion

battery (LI-50B). No other type of batteries can

be used.

Caution:

There is a risk of explosion if the battery is

replaced with the incorrect battery type.

Dispose of the used battery following

the instructions in “Battery Handling

Precautions” (p. 73).

Power consumption by the camera varies

depending on which functions are used.

During the conditions described below, power

is consumed continuously and the battery

becomes exhausted quickly.

The zoom is used repeatedly.

The shutter button is pressed halfway

repeatedly in shooting mode, activating the

auto focus.

A picture is displayed on the monitor for an

extended period of time.

The camera is connected to a computer or

printer.

Using an exhausted battery may cause the

camera to turn off without displaying the

battery level warning.

The rechargeable battery is not fully charged

at the time of purchase. Charge the battery

fully with the included AC adapter (F-1AC)

or the separately sold AC adaptor (D-7AC)/

charger (LI-50C) before use.

When the included AC adaptor (F-1AC) is

used, charging usually takes approximately

2.5 hours (varies on usage).

The included AC adaptor (F-1AC) has been

designed to be used only for charging.

Make sure that operations such as shooting,

viewing images and so on are not being used

while the AC adaptor is connected to the

camera.

The included AC adaptor (F-1AC) is designed

to be used only with this camera. Other

cameras cannot be charged with this AC

adaptor.

For plug-in type AC adaptor:

The included AC adaptor (F-1AC) is intended

to be correctly orientated in a vertical or floor

mount position.


Camera care

Exterior

Wipe gently with a soft cloth. If the camera is

very dirty, soak the cloth in mild soapy water

and wring well. Wipe the camera with the

damp cloth and then dry it with a dry cloth. If

you have used the camera at the beach, use a

cloth soaked in clean water and wrung well.

If any dirt, dust, sand, or other foreign material

adheres to the periphery of the lens cover

after use, or the lens cover does not move

smoothly, wash the camera using the method

described on P. 69.

Monitor

Wipe gently with a soft cloth.

Lens

Blow dust off the lens with a commercial

blower, then wipe gently with a lens cleaner.

Battery/AC adaptor

Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth.

Do not use strong solvents such as benzene

or alcohol, or chemically treated cloth.

Mold may form on the lens surface if the

lens is left dirty.

Storage

When storing the camera for extended

periods, remove the battery, AC adapter and

card, and keep in a cool, dry place that is well

ventilated.

Periodically insert the battery and test the

camera functions.

Avoid leaving the camera in places where

chemical products are handled since this

may result in corrosion.
