temperatures, use the flash, repeatedly turn the power on/off or use the zoom. 
The capacity of the “Memory Stick” is limited. The above figures are a guide when you 
continuously record/play back while replacing the “Memory Stick.”

battery so that the correct battery remaining time appears.
Do not short the DC plug of the AC power adaptor with a metallic object, as this may cause 
malfunction.
