BASIC CAMERA SETTINGS

Menu language

The default setting for the language used in the menu system is English.

German, French, Italian, Spanish, Russian, Japanese, traditional and

simpliﬁed Chinese can all be selected as alternative menu languages.

Setting the function

1. In the SETUP menu (see p. 17/26), select Language (5.40), and

2. then the desired language in the submenu.

• Apart from a few exceptions (button labels, short designations),

the language of all texts is changed.

Date and time

Date

There are 3 options available for the sequence of the date.

Setting

1. In the SETUP menu (see p. 17/26), select Date (5.38), and

2. call up the submenu. It consists of the 2 items Setting and Format.

3. Select Setting.

• A further submenu is displayed - Date Setting - containing the three

columns Year, Month and Day.

4. Turn the click wheel (1.18) or press the joystick (1.17) up or down to

adjust the numbers and the months and press the click wheel or the

joystick to the left, right or inwards to switch between the columns.

5. After setting all three columns, press the click wheel or joystick

inwards to conﬁrm and save.

• The list of menu items is displayed again.

6. To change the display format, select Date again, and

7. then select Format in the submenu.

• The three possible sequences are displayed - Day/Month/Year,

Month/Day/Year, and Year/Month/Day.

8. The setting is made and conﬁrmed in exactly the same way as

described in points 3 and 4.

Time

The time can either be shown in 24-hour or 12-hour format.

Setting

In the Time menu item (5.39) the settings for the two groups of ﬁgures

and the display format are made in the Format and Setting items, as

described in the previous section for Date.

By contrast, the Time Zone/Auto Time item has an additional submenu

containing the items GPS Auto Time (only available with active GPS func-

tion), Time Zone (only available with inactive GPS function), and Daylight

Saving Time.

If GPS Auto Time is activated, the time set on the camera is continuously

updated according to the GPS signals received (see p. 51).

Note:

Even when no battery is inserted in the camera or the battery is ﬂat, the

date and time settings are maintained by a built-in back-up battery for

about 3 months (see also “Charge level displays”, p. 21). However, after

that time the date and time must be set again as described above.

Automatic power off

This function turns the Leica S off automatically after a pre-set time. This

is the equivalent of setting the main switch to the OFF position (1.15a,

see p. 25).

Setting the function

1. In the SETUP menu (see p. 17/26), select Auto Power Off (5.28), and

2. then the desired function and duration.

Note:

Even if the camera is in standby mode, i.e. the displays have gone out

after 12s, or the active Auto Power Off function has turned it off, it can be

restarted at any time by pressing the shutter release button (1.1).
