Notes on Batteries
Batteries
To extend the use of the camera, we strongly recommend that you only use the following
types of batteries:
• AA Nickel battery (not rechargeable): ZR6G (Toshiba “GigaEnergy”)
• AA Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMh) battery (Rechargeable) : TH-3 (Toshiba)
The camera does not have a rechargeable function. Please use the battery charger
on the market when recharging Nickel Hydride (NiMh) battery.
• AA Lithium battery (Not Rechargeable)
• CR-V3 Lithium battery pack (Not Rechargeable)
Use Toshiba “GigaEnergy” AA Nickel batteries.
“GigaEnergy” batteries are next generation batteries which are optimum for use in digital
still cameras. They offer far better performance than conventional Alkaline batteries.
Notes on batteries other than the recommended batteries
AA Manganese batteries cannot be used in this camera.
The AA Alkaline batteries can be used in case of urgent need, but only a few photographs
can be taken. Furthermore, they cannot be used in a low temperature.
Please be careful to purchase the proper batteries.
For consideration of the environment, we do not recommend the use of AA Nickel Cadium
batteries.
Note on Battery Life
The battery life may vary depending on individual brand of the battery, length of storage
since manufacture, temperature of the camera and batteries, and operating condition
such as flash. Moreover, if the polarities of the batteries (+ or –) and the terminal of the
camera that come in contact with the electrodes are contaminated, electricity will not flow
properly and the camera will decide that the batteries are exhausted. When removing and
loading the batteries, be careful not to touch these parts. If the parts are contaminated,
clean with a dry cloth.
When using the supplied Nickel batteries, the number of photographs that can be taken
are shown as below.
Conditions: 25°C, Flash use rate 100%
Photography interval: 1 frame every 30 seconds
Possible number of shots: 70 shots
* The number of frames shown above is a reference value.
Method of Extending Battery Life
Even if the camera is turned off, the battery power is slightly consumed. We strongly
recommend to remove the batteries when the camera is not in use for an extended period
of time. However, the time and date settings will return to the initial settings, so reset
them before using. Low temperatures can also affect the performance of the battery so
keep the camera and battery warm by placing in clothes to protect against the cold.
Furthermore, battery performance affected by low temperature, which cause the possible
number of shots decreasing, restores its functions when batteries return to the adequate
temperature (25°C).

Notes on SD card
In this camera, the SD memory card is used for the storage medium.
In this instruction manual, the SD memory card is called “SD card”.
Pay attention to the following notes on handling the supplied SD card.
Cautions
• SD card includes a non-volatile semiconductor memory (NAND Flash EEP-ROM).
Under normal use data stored on SD cards cannot be destroyed (lost). If used
improperly, however, the data may be destroyed (lost). Please note that Toshiba will
accept no responsibility whatsoever for destroyed (lost) data, regardless of the type
or cause of the problem or damage.
• SD card uses part of the memory as the system area based on the SD card, so the
actually usable memory capacity is lower than the indicated capacity.
• SD card is already formatted and can be used as such. If you should want to reformat
a card in order to delete images or folders, however, be sure to do so on the camera.
Formatting the SD memory card on other devices (PC, etc...) may result in problems
such as inability to read or write data, reduce the speed of writing, etc...
• It is recommended that you make backups of important data.
Write Protection
To prevent valuable data from being erased,
switch the write protect tab at the side of the card
to “LOCK”. Data can no longer be overwritten
(Lock status). To write, edit or erase data from
the SD card, release the write-protection state.
Specifications
Type of memory: NAND Flash memory
Temperature for operation: 0°C to +55°C
Temperature for storage: -20°C to 65°C
Operating/Storage humidity: 30% to 80%RH
Even within the above range, do not expose to sudden
temperature change which may cause condensation
Dimensions: 24.0 x 32.0 x 2.1mm (W x D x H)
Weight: Approx. 2g
