Turning on the Power
If you turn on the power switch and the date/time/zone setting
screen appears, see page 40 to set the date/time/zone.
Automatic Sensor Cleaning
Whenever you set the power switch to <1> or <2>, sensor
cleaning will be executed automatically. (A small sound may be
heard.) During the sensor cleaning, the LCD monitor will display
<f>.
You can still shoot during sensor cleaning by pressing the shutter
button halfway (p.48) to stop cleaning and take a picture.
If you repeatedly turn the power switch <1>/<2> at a short
interval, the <f> icon may not be displayed. This is normal and
not a malfunction.
3 Auto Power Off
To save battery power, the camera turns off automatically after
approx. 30 seconds of non-operation. To turn on the camera again,
just press the shutter button halfway (p.48).
You can change the auto power off time with [52: Auto power off].
If you set the power switch to <2> while an image is being recorded to
the card, [Recording...] will be displayed and the power will turn off after the
recording finishes.
