If the camera is left for 1 hour with the batteries removed, all the internal settings will revert to the default settings. If the terminals inside the battery compartment are dirty, it will noticeably shorten the life of the batteries. Do not touch the inside of the battery compartment as this may cause the terminals to become dirty.
Selecting optional batteries or AC adapter
The following types of battery or AC adapter can be used. Choose the power source best suited to the situation. Lithium battery pack Since the CR-V3 lithium battery pack has an exceptionally long service life, it is convenient when traveling. The CR-V3 lithium battery pack cannot be recharged. Rechargeable batteries Olympus NiMH batteries are rechargeable and economical. In addition, the low-temperature resistance makes them a good choice for cold areas.

Loading the batteries (Cont.)
AA (R6) alkaline batteries When you need batteries in a hurry, you can use AA (R6) alkaline batteries, which are easy to obtain anywhere. However, the number of pictures that you can store in the camera may vary considerably with AA alkaline batteries, depending on the battery manufacturer, camera shooting conditions, etc. Use this type of battery only when you have no other choices available. Turn off the monitor whenever possible to save power. AC adapter An optional Olympus CAMEDIA-brand AC adapter allows you to power your digital camera from a common AC wall outlet. Be sure to use the specified AC adapter. An AC adapter is useful for time-consuming tasks such as image downloads. Use an AC adapter designed to operate on the AC voltage in the area the camera is being used. Consult your nearest Olympus dealer or Service center for details.

Note
Manganese (zinc-carbon) batteries cannot be used. The lives of battery packs may vary according to the type of battery, manufacturer, camera shooting conditions, etc. If the battery power runs out while the camera is connected to a PC, image data will be corrupted. It is recommended that you use the optional AC adapter when transferring images to a PC. Do not disconnect or connect the AC adapter while the camera is communicating with the PC. Power is consumed continuously during the conditions described below. This could reduce the number of pictures that can be taken. ·When the monitor is turned on. ·Repeated auto-focus by depressing the shutter button halfway. ·Repeated power zoom adjustments. ·When the Fulltime AF mode is turned on. ·When the monitor is in the playback mode for an extended period of time. ·When communicating with a PC. Carefully read the "GENERAL PRECAUTIONS" included in the package and the AC adapter's instructions before use. When using an AC adapter, power is supplied to the camera by the AC adapter even if batteries are loaded in the camera. The AC adapter does not charge batteries that may be in the camera; it only provides power to the camera. Do not remove or load batteries and/or do not disconnect or connect the AC adapter while the camera is turned on. Doing so could damage the camera's settings or functions.
