Replacing the Backup Battery
When the backup battery’s power level runs low, the message “ ” appears on the camera’s
LCD panel. If this happens, you will need to purchase a replacement CR2025 battery and
replace the backup battery in your camera as follows.
If you replace the backup battery while the camera is connected to a battery pack with power
remaining or to a DC coupler, the date, time, and other menu functions will retain their settings.

cover by turning it 45 degrees
