If the [CHARGE] lamp flashes red... • Charging cannot be performed because ambient temperature or the temperature of the charger is too hot or too cold. Leave the camera in a location whose temperature is within the range where charging can be performed. When the camera returns to a temperature where charging can be performed, the [CHARGE] lamp will light red. • Check if the charger and battery contacts are dirty. If contacts are dirty, wipe them clean with a dry cloth. Power Supply Charging If problems continue to occur after you perform the above steps, it could mean that the battery is faulty. Contact your nearest CASIO authorized service center. Downloaded From camera-usermanual.com Casio Manuals
153Appendix 1.Open the battery cover and remove the current battery. With the monitor screen side of the camera facing upwards, slide the stopper in the direction indicated by the arrow in the illustration. After the battery pops out, pull it the rest of the way out of the camera. 2.Load a new battery. .Precautions during Use • Operation provided by a battery under cold conditions is always less than operation under normal temperatures. This is due to the characteristics of the battery, not the camera. • Charge the battery in an area where the temperature is within the range of 5°C to 35°C (41°F to 95°F). Outside this temperature range charging can take longer than normal or even fail. • Do not tear or remove the battery outer label. • If a battery provides only very limited operation following a full charge, it probably means the battery has reached the end of its service life. Replace the battery with a new one. .Storage Precautions • Storing the battery for a long time while it is charged can cause deterioration of battery characteristics. If you do not plan to use a battery for some time, fully use up its charge before storing it. • Always remove the battery from the camera when you are not using it. A battery left in the camera can discharge and go dead, which will require some time to charge when you need to use the camera. • Store batteries in a cool, dry place (20°C (68°F) or lower). • To prevent over discharging of an unused battery, fully charge it, and then load it in the camera and fully use up the charge about once every six months.

154Appendix .Precautions during Use • The bundled charger is designed for operation with any power supply in the range of 100V to 240V AC, 50/60Hz. Note, however, that the shape of the power cord plug depends on each country or geographic area. Before taking the camera and charger along on a trip, check with travel agent about the power supply requirements in your destination(s). • Do not connect the charger to a power supply through a voltage converter or similar device. Doing so can lead to malfunction. .Extra Batteries • Taking along extra fully charged batteries (NP-120) is recommended while on a trip in order to avoid not being able to shoot images due to the battery going dead. See page 20 for information about supported memory cards and how to load a memory card. Press the memory card and then release it. This will cause it to pop out of the memory card slot slightly. Pull the card out the rest of the way and then insert another one. • Never remove a card from the camera while the back lamp is flashing green. Doing so can cause the image save operation to fail and even damage the memory card. Using the Camera in another Country Using a Memory Card To replace the memory card Downloaded From camera-usermanual.com Casio Manuals
155Appendix .Using a Memory Card • SD memory cards and SDHC memory cards have a write protect switch. Use the switch when you need to guard against accidentally deleting data. Note, however, if you write protect an SD memory card you must then turn write protection off whenever you want to record to it, format it, or delete any of its images. • If a memory card starts to behave abnormally during image playback, you can restore normal operation by reformatting it (page 143). However, it is recommended that you always take along multiple memory cards whenever using the camera far away from the home or office. • As you record data to and delete data from a memory card a number of times, it loses its ability to retain data. Because of this, periodic re-formatting of a memory card is recommended. • Electrostatic charge, electrical noise, and other phenomena can cause data to become corrupted or even lost. Make sure that you always back up important data on other media (CD-R, CD-RW, hard disk, etc.). .Memory Card Handling Precautions Certain types of memory cards can slow down processing speeds. In particular, you may experience problems saving high-quality (HD and STD) movies. When using the camera’s built-in memory or certain types of memory cards, it can take too much time to record data, which can result in breaks in the image and/or audio. This condition is indicated by » and Y flashing on the monitor screen. Use of a memory card with a maximum transfer speed of at least 10MB per second is recommended. .Discarding or Transferring Ownership of a Memory Card or the Camera The format and delete functions of the camera do not actually delete files from the memory card. The original data remains on the card. Note that responsibility for the data on a memory card lies with you. The following procedures are recommended whenever you discard a memory card or the camera, or if you transfer ownership to another party. • When discarding a memory card, either physically destroy the memory card or use commercially available data delete software to completely delete the data on the memory card. • When transferring ownership of a memory card to another party, use commercially available data deletion software to completely delete the data on it. • Use the format function (page 143) to completely delete the data in built-in memory before discarding or transferring ownership of the camera.

There is a vertical line in the monitor screen image. Shooting a very brightly lit subject can cause a vertical band to appear in the monitor screen image. This is a CCD phenomenon known as “vertical smear”, and does not indicate malfunction of the camera. Note that vertical smear is not recorded with the image in the case of a snapshot, but it is recorded in the case of a movie. There is digital noise in images.1) Sensitivity may have been increased automatically for a dark subject, which increases the chance of digital noise. Use a light or some other means to illuminate the subject. 2) You may be attempting to shoot in a dark location with ? (Flash Off) selected, which can increase digital noise and make images appear coarse. In this case, turn on flash (page 38) or use lights for illumination. 3)Shooting with a high ISO sensitivity setting or with the Lighting feature can cause an increase in digital noise. Use a light or some other means to illuminate the subject. ProblemPossible Cause and Recommended Action Downloaded From camera-usermanual.com Casio Manuals
