of what to do, refer to the information below to fix the
problem(s).
Troubleshooting
Battery
The camera does not work even when batteries are
installed.
Insert recharged batteries in the correct direction.
Inserting the battery and the SD/SDHC memory
card (sold separately) (p. 12), Charging the
battery and setting up using the supplied CD
(p. 13), Charging the battery with the supplied
USB-AC adapter (p. 16)
Battery performance may have been reduced
temporarily due to low temperature. Take the
batteries out of the camera, and warm them by
putting them in your pocket for a while.
Card/Internal memory
An error message is displayed.
Error message (p. 56)
Shutter button
No picture is taken when the shutter button is
pressed.
Cancel sleep mode.
To save battery power, the camera automatically
goes into sleep mode and the monitor turns off
if there is no operation for 3 minutes when the
camera is turned on. No picture is taken even if
the shutter button is fully pressed in this mode.
Operate the zoom lever or other buttons to restore
the camera from sleep mode before taking a
picture. If the camera is left for another 12 minutes,
it automatically turns off. Press the n button
to turn the camera on.
Monitor
Difficult to see.
Condensation*1 may have occurred. Turn off the
power, and wait for the camera body to become
acclimated to the surrounding temperature and dry
out before taking pictures.
*1
Dew drops can form in the camera when it is
suddenly taken from a cold location into a warm,
humid room.
Vertical lines appear on the screen.
This condition may occur when the camera is
pointed at an extremely bright subject under a clear
sky and so on. The lines do not appear, however,
in the final image.
The light is caught in the picture.
Shooting with flash in dark situations results in an
image with many flash reflections on dust in the air.

Shooting tips
When you are unsure of how to take a picture that you
envision, refer to the information below.
Focusing
Focusing on the subject
Taking a picture of a subject not in the center
of the screen
After focusing on an object at the same distance
as the subject, compose the shot, and take the
picture.
Pressing the shutter button halfway (p. 20)
Set [AF Mode] (p. 35) to [Face/iESP]
Taking a picture in [AF Tracking] mode (p. 35)
The camera tracks the subject movement
automatically to focus on it continuously.
Taking a picture of a shadowy subject
Using the AF illuminator makes focusing easier.
[AF Illuminat.] (p. 37)
Taking a picture of subjects where autofocus
is difficult
In the following cases, after focusing on an object
(by pressing the shutter button halfway down) with
high contrast at the same distance as the subject,
compose the shot, and take the picture.

Color hue
Taking pictures with colors at the same shade as
they appear
Taking pictures by selecting white balance
(p. 32)
Best results in most environments can normally
be obtained with the [WB Auto] setting, but for
some subjects, you should try experimenting
with different settings. (This is especially true for
sunshade under a clear sky, mixed natural and
artificial light settings, and so on.)
Image quality
Taking sharper pictures
Taking pictures with the optical zoom
Avoid using digital zoom (p. 21, 36) to take
pictures.
Taking pictures at a low ISO sensitivity
If the picture is taken with a high ISO sensitivity,
noise (small colored spots and color unevenness
that were not in the original image) can occur, and
the image can appear grainy. The resulting image
is grainier than with low ISO sensitivity as well.
Selecting the ISO sensitivity (p. 32)
Playback/Editing tips
Playback
Playing images in the internal memory and card
Remove the card when playing pictures in the
internal memory
To remove the SD/SDHC memory card (p. 13)

Caution:
There is a risk of explosion if the battery is replaced
with the incorrect battery type.
Dispose of the used battery following the instructions.
(p. 67)
Power consumption by the camera varies depending on
which functions are used.
During the conditions described below, power is
consumed continuously and the battery becomes
exhausted quickly.
The zoom is used repeatedly.
The shutter button is pressed halfway repeatedly in
shooting mode, activating the auto focus.
A picture is displayed on the monitor for an extended
period of time.
The camera is connected to a printer.
Using an exhausted battery may cause the camera to
turn off without displaying the battery level warning.
The rechargeable battery is not fully charged at the time
of purchase. Use the supplied F-2AC USB-AC adapter
(hereafter referred to as USB-AC adapter) to charge the
battery before use.
When the included USB-AC adapter is used, charging
usually takes approximately 3 hours (varies on usage).
The supplied USB-AC adapter is for charging and
playback only. Do not take pictures while the USB-AC
adapter is connected to the camera. The camera cannot
playback without the battery even when connected to
the USB-AC adapter.
The included USB-AC adapter is designed to be
used only with this camera. Other cameras cannot be
charged with this USB-AC adapter.
Do not use with other devices.
For plug-in type USB-AC adapter:
The included USB-AC adapter is intended to be
correctly orientated in a vertical or floor mount position.

TO WATER OR OPERATE IN A HIGH HUMIDITY
ENVIRONMENT.
General Precautions
Read All Instructions Before you use the product, read all
operating instructions. Save all manuals and documentation
for future reference.
Cleaning Always unplug this product from the wall outlet
before cleaning. Use only a damp cloth for cleaning. Never
use any type of liquid or aerosol cleaner, or any type of
organic solvent to clean this product.
Attachments For your safety, and to avoid damaging the
product, use only accessories recommended by Olympus.
Water and Moisture For precautions on products with

EN
65
DANGER
The camera uses a lithium ion battery specified by Olympus.
Charge the battery with the specified USB-AC adapter. Do not
use any other USB-AC adapters.
Never heat or incinerate batteries.
Take precautions when carrying or storing batteries to prevent
them from coming into contact with any metal objects such as
jewelry, pins, fasteners, etc.
Never store batteries where they will be exposed to direct
sunlight, or subjected to high temperatures in a hot vehicle,
near a heat source, etc.
To prevent causing battery leaks or damaging their terminals,
carefully follow all instructions regarding the use of batteries.
Never attempt to disassemble a battery or modify it in any
way, solder, etc.
If battery fluid gets into your eyes, flush your eyes immediately
with clear, cold running water and seek medical attention
immediately.
66
EN
WARNING
Keep batteries dry at all times.
To prevent batteries from leaking, overheating, or causing a
fire or explosion, use only batteries recommended for use with
this product.
Insert the battery carefully as described in the operating
instructions.
If rechargeable batteries have not been recharged within the
specified time, stop charging them and do not use them.
Do not use a battery if it is cracked or broken.
If a battery leaks, becomes discolored or deformed, or
becomes abnormal in any other way during operation, stop
using the camera.
If a battery leaks fluid onto your clothing or skin, remove the
clothing and flush the affected area with clean, running cold
water immediately. If the fluid burns your skin, seek medical
attention immediately.
Never subject batteries to strong shocks or continuous
vibration.
CAUTION
Before loading, always inspect the battery carefully for leaks,
discoloration, warping, or any other abnormality.
The battery may become hot during prolonged use. To avoid
minor burns, do not remove it immediately after using the
camera.
Always unload the battery from the camera before storing the
camera for a long period.
LCD Monitor
Do not push the monitor forcibly; otherwise the image may
become vague, resulting in a playback mode failure or damage
to the monitor.
A strip of light may appear on the top/bottom of the monitor, but
this is not a malfunction.
When a subject is viewed diagonally in the camera, the
edges may appear zigzagged on the monitor. This is not a
malfunction; it will be less noticeable in playback mode.
In places subject to low temperatures, the LCD monitor may
take a long time to turn on or its color may change temporarily.
When using the camera in extremely cold places, it is a good
idea to occasionally place it in a warm place. An LCD monitor
exhibiting poor performance due to low temperatures will
recover in normal temperatures.
The LCD used for the monitor is made with high-precision
technology. However, black spots or bright spots of light
may appear constantly on the LCD Monitor. Due to its
characteristics or the angle at which you are viewing the
monitor, the spot may not be uniform in color and brightness.
This is not a malfunction.
