Using AC Power
Use the optional AC adaptor (AD-C620) to power the cam-
era from standard AC power.
AC Adaptor precautions
• Never use an electrical outlet whose voltage is
outside the rating marked on the AC adaptor.
Doing so can create the danger of fire or elec-
trical shock. Use only the optional AC adaptor
specified for this camera.
• Should the cord of the AC adaptor become
damaged (exposed internal wiring), request a
replacement from an authorized CASIO ser-
vice provider. A damaged AC adaptor cord cre-
ates the danger of fire or electrical shock.

CAUTION
Auto Power Off
(Battery Powered Operation Only)
Power automatically turns off whenever you do not perform
any camera operation for a specific period. See page 35 for
details about how you can specify the Auto Power Off time.
• To restore power, simply slide the POWER Switch again.
IMPORTANT!
The Auto Power Off function does not operate under the
following conditions.
• During Slide Show (page 72)
• While the camera is being operated from a computer
or printer over a cable connection (pages 82, 83).
• Whenever the AC adaptor is connected to the camera.
34
• Always be sure to use the AD-C620 AC adap-
tor only. Using any other AC adaptor can cause
damage to the camera not covered by the war-
ranty.
• When unplugging the AC adaptor from the wall
socket, be sure to grasp the adaptor (not the
cord).
• Avoid any undue bending, pulling, and twisting
of the AC adaptor’s cord, and never try to
lengthen the cord by splicing it with other wire.
• Be sure to turn power off before connecting or disconnect-
ing the adaptor.
• Always turn camera power off before disconnecting the AC
adaptor, even if the camera has batteries installed. If you
don’t, the camera will turn off automatically when you dis-
connect the AC adaptor. Even so, you run the risk of dam-
aging the camera whenever you disconnect the AC adap-
tor without first turning power off.
• The AC adaptor may become warm to the touch after ex-
tended periods of use. This is normal and is not cause for
alarm.
• After use turn off the POWER Switch of the camera and
unplug adaptor from the AC outlet.
• The camera automatically switches over to AC adaptor
powered operations whenever the AC adaptor is plugged
into the camera.
• Always use the AC adaptor to power the camera whenever
it is connected to a computer.

fied amount of time in the Record Mode.
Full power is restored when you press
the shutter button. You can specify 30
seconds, 1 minute, or 2 minutes before
the sleep state is triggered, or you can
turn off this setting entirely.
AUTO

no operation is performed for a specified
amount of time. You can specify 2 min-
utes, 5 minutes, or 10 minutes before

When you record an image, the time and date the image was
shot is registered in accordance with data from the camera’s
built-in clock. You can even use the TIME STAMP function to
“stamp” the date and time inside the image.
IMPORTANT!
• If you do not set the camera's built-in clock to the cur-
rent date and time, all images are recorded with the
default date and time, which probably is not your cor-
rect current date and time. Be sure to correctly set the
clock before you use the camera.
