Getting Started
1
If you intend to use the LCD monitor for a long time or connect the
camera to a PC, we recommend using the AC adapter D-AC5 (option) to
connect your camera to a household power outlet.
1 Make sure that the camera is turned off and open the
terminal cover.
2 Connect the DC terminal on the AC adapter to the DC
input terminal on the camera.
3 Connect the AC power cable to the AC adapter.
4 Plug the AC power cable into the power outlet.
Using a Household Power Outlet
• Make sure that the camera is turned off when connecting or
disconnecting the AC adapter.
• Make sure that the AC power cable and connecting cable are inserted
securely. The data may be lost if the cable becomes disconnected
while you are taking pictures.
• If the terminal cover on the camera gets caught in the grooves of the
DC terminal (indicated by ∗ in the illustration), the DC terminal may
become disconnected. Take care that the grooves on the DC terminal
are not in a position to catch on the terminal cover when using the AC
adapter.
• To avoid the risk of fire or electric shock when using the AC adapter,
be sure to read “FOR SAFE USE OF YOUR CAMERA” (p.1).
• Be sure to read the operation manual accompanying the AC adapter
D-AC5 before using the adapter.
• The batteries inside the camera cannot be recharged by connecting
the AC adapter.
