There are two ways in which to provide the camera with power. You can use batteries or alternatively, you can use an AC(100 ~ 250V) Adapter (DC 3.3V 2.0A). We recommend using batteries for a digital camera. (use batteries that are within a year of their date of manufacture) The batteries are listed below. Non rechargeable batteries : Duracell CP-1 battery Rechargeable batteries : Digimax power pack (SLB-1037) Battery pack : Digimax Battery Pack (SBP-3603)

INFORMATION

Important information about battery usage Do not recharge the non rechargeable batteries. This may cause an explosion. Please remove the batteries if the camera will not be used for long periods. Batteries can lose power over time and are prone to leaking if kept inside the camera. Low temperatures (below 0 ) can affect the performance of the batteries and you may experience reduced battery life. Batteries will usually recover at normal temperatures. During extended use of the camera, the camera body may become warm. This is perfectly normal. If you are planning to use this camera for long periods of time, it is advisable to use an AC adapter (3.3V 2.0A).
Using the AC power adapter (3.3V 2.0A)
If you have access to a mains supply, using an AC Adapter (3.3V 2.0A) allows the camera to be used for long periods of time. Plug the adapter into the connection point (DC IN 3.3V) on the camera. Remove the batteries from the camera when using an AC adapter.
Always turn off the power before taking the AC adapter out of the mains supply. As with all mains powered devices, safety is important. Ensure that neither the camera nor adapter comes into contact with water or metallic materials. Please ensure that you use an AC adapter (3.3V 2.0A) with the correct specification for the camera. Failure to do so may affect your warranty.
