Using an AC adapter
An AC adapter is useful for time-consuming 
tasks such as image downloads to a computer 
or when running a slideshow for a long period of 
time. To use an AC adapter for this camera, the 
multi-adapter (CB-MA1/accessory) is required.
Do not use any other AC adapter with this 
camera.
Using your charger and AC 
adapter abroad
The charger and AC adapter can be used in 
most home electrical sources within the range 
of 100 V to 240 V AC (50/60Hz) around the 
world. However, depending on the country 
or area you are in, the AC wall outlet may be 
shaped differently and the charger and AC 
adapter may require a plug adapter to match 
the wall outlet. For details, ask at your local 
electrical shop or travel agent.
Do not use travel voltage converters as they 
could damage your charger and AC adapter.
Using an xD-Picture Card
A card (and internal memory) also corresponds 
to the fi lm that records images in a fi lm camera. 
Otherwise, the recorded images (data) can be 
erased, and retouching is also available with 
the use of a computer. Cards can be removed 
from the camera and exchanged, but this is 
not possible with the internal memory. Use of 
larger capacity cards enables you to take more 
pictures.
  Do not touch the contact area directly.
Cards compatible with this camera

Using a new card
Before using a non-Olympus card or a card

computer or other device, use [MEMORY

 to format the
