POWERING DOWN THE CAMERA
To turn off the camera, press the power on button for at least 0.5 sec to less than 4
sec**.
Like a computer, the camera needs to shut down properly to avoid problems with the
operating system. Don't force a hard power down unless the camera is unresponsive
and will not power down normally.
IMPORTANT: ** Do not continue to hold the button; holding it for more than 4 seconds will force
a hard power-down. A hard power-down will shut down the camera without the OS knowing about
it and thus possibly creating instability in the system.
BATTERY CHARGING
Before you run the camera on battery power, charge the new battery up to at least 80%
(LED flashes green/orange, or is solid green). This should take less than 2 hours.
