Before you begin using your Olympus C-4000 Zoom Digital Camera…

Insert the SmartMedia

™

Card

The SmartMedia card is where the camera stores your pictures. The pictures

you take remain on the SmartMedia card even when the camera is turned off

and/or the batteries are removed.

First, make sure the camera is OFF. Open the card cover door. Note the diagram on the inside of the

door. Match the orientation of the SmartMedia card to the diagram, and slide the card into the spring-

loaded slot as far as it will go. Close the cover until it locks into place; you will feel it snap closed.

Attach the carrying strap and lens cap retainer string (OPTIONAL)

We recommend that you attach the strap and lens cap retainer string at this time to make the

camera easier to handle and prevent loss of the lens cap. Attach the strap as illustrated.

To remove a SmartMedia card, push it into the camera, and then release it. The card partially ejects

and can now be removed.

The following items are also included in the C-4000 Zoom package: Video cable, SmartMedia card instructions, Basic Manual,

warranty card, registration card, safety precautions booklet, and SmartMedia write-protect adhesive seals.

Set the Date and Time (OPTIONAL)

Although this is not required, it is recommended that you set the date and time. This affects the way

image files are named, and each picture will be recorded with this information.

• Set the mode dial to "P" and press . The monitor turns on and the top menu appears.

• Press on the arrow pad to select MODE MENU.

• To access the Date/Time menu, press three (3) times to scroll to the SET tab. Now press .

• Press five (5) times to select , and then press .

keys. Repeat the process until all date/time fields have been set.

• Press twice to set the date and time and exit the menu.

TIP: For best results, Olympus strongly recommends using four AA nickel metal

hydride (NiMH) rechargeable batteries. An optional Olympus AC adapter also

is available, and is recommended when downloading images to ensure a consistent

power supply.

See the C-4000 Zoom Basic Manual for more information on battery use.

PREPARE THE CAMERA FOR USE

Battery compartment lock

Load the batteries

The CR-V3 lithium batteries included with your C-4000 Zoom

are much more powerful than standard AA alkaline batteries.

Please note that they are not rechargeable.

Load the two CR-V3 lithium batteries. Note they can only be

inserted with the indentations facing each other. The contact terminals

must be inserted first, as shown at right. Never force battery insertion.

When loading CR-V3 batteries ignore the illustration on the camera body.

If you are loading four AA type batteries into the compartment, load them as

indicated in the illustration on the camera body. Close the cover and lock the

battery compartment door.
