∫ Initial setting
The clock is not set when the camera is 
shipped. When you turn the camera on, the 
following screen appears.

• When pressing the [MENU] button, the 

screen shown in step 1 appears.

• The screen disappears after about 

5 seconds. Turn the camera on again or 
press the [MENU] button, select [CLOCK 
SET] in page 2/3 of the [SETUP] menu 
(P21) and set the clock in steps 1 and 2.

•

2/1: Select the desired item.

•

3/4: Set date and time.

• Close the menu by pressing the 

[MENU] button 2 times after finishing 
the setting.

• Check if the clock setting is correct, 

after turning the camera off and on.

• When a fully charged battery has been 

inserted for more than 24 hours, the clock 
setting is stored (in the camera) for at 
least 3 months even if the battery is 
removed. (The storing time may be 
shorter if the battery is not charged 
sufficiently.)
If more than 3 months has passed, the 
clock setting will be lost. In this case, set 
the clock again.

• You can set the year from 2000 to 2099. 

The 24-hour system is used.

• When you use a photo printing service, if 

the date is not set in the camera, it will not 
be printed, even if the store provides a 
date printing option to your photo.

• For the date print setting, refer to P84.
