To install the batteries:
1. Open the battery cover.
2. Insert the batteries properly. When inserting,
make sure that you follow the polarity direc-
tions which are indicated on the inner side

Warning
Note
● If you won’t be using the camera for an extended period of time, remove the batteries to
prevent leaks or corrosion.
● Never use manganese batteries. Never mix old and new batteries.
● Low temperatures under 0
C may reduce the output efficiency of batteries, thereby shorten-
ing the time that the camera is able to operate.
● The recommended battery is AA-size alkaline battery.
Battery Life Indicator
When the camera has full power, the Battery
Power icon on the LCD panel will be fully
shaded. When power is low, only the lower
portion of the icon will be shaded. This indi-
cates that the batteries need to be replaced.
When the batteries are completely dead, the
camera will not turn on.

adapter into a wall socket.
Warning
● Always be sure to use the power adapter from the manufacturer. Any other adapter may
cause damage to the camera, which is not covered under the warranty.
● Grasp the power adapter, not the cord, when unplugging it from a wall socket.
● If the power cord gets damaged (exposed or severed wires, etc.), purchase a new power
adapter from your local dealer. Using a damaged cord may cause fire or electrical shock.
● Switch off and disconnect the AC adapter from the camera before unplugging it from the
wall socket.

Using e-mini M as a Digital Camera
The camera allows you to easily take digital photo shots. This section shows you how
to take pictures with the camera.
Taking Pictures
Set the camera to DSC mode when you want to take pictures. To take digital photo
shots with the camera, make sure that there is enough battery power or that the op-
tional power adapter is properly connected. (See page 10 to 11 for details on how to
insert batteries or connect a power adapter.) Connecting a USB cable between the
camera and your PC can also provide power to the camera. (See page 18 to see an
illustration of how to connect a USB cable.)
If you want to use a Compact Flash memory card to store your pictures, insert the
memory card before you start taking pictures. Without a Compact Flash memory card
installed, the pictures are stored in built-in memory. (For more information on inserting
memory card, see page 12 ).

Flash Mode
The camera has two different flash modes:
No Flash - The flash is disabled no matter what the ambient brightness of the
surroundings is.
Auto - The camera automatically fires the flash when the lighting in the
surrounding is not bright enough.
Picture Quality
Two different elements determine the quality of the pictures that you take. The first is
resolution. The camera takes pictures at 640 X 480 resolution. The second element is
the amount of compression applied to captured images. This camera can capture im-
ages using two types of compression settings: Normal (high compression) and Fine (low
compression). The lower the compression, the higher the image quality, but the fewer
the number of pictures that can be taken. Higher compression gives acceptable image
guality for most purposes and allows more pictures to be taken.
Normal Quality - 32 pictures
Fine Quality - 16 pictures
(The total number of images that can be stored may vary according to the free space
available, the picture quality setting used for each shot, and the complexity of the subjects.)
Self-Timer
The Self-Timer gives a 10-second delay between the time you press the Shutter Re-
lease button and the time the picture is taken. The 10-second delay is indicated by the
Self-Timer LED flashing once per second for seven seconds, then twice per second for
the last three seconds.
After a picture has been taken, the Self-Timer is cancelled automatically. It needs to be
activated each time you wish to use it to take a picture.

Using e-mini M as an MP3 Player
To use the e-mini M as an MP3 Player, you need to first transfer MP3 songs from your
PC into the camera. This section tells you where you can get MP3 files as well as how
to upload them into camera and then play them.
Where to Get MP3 Music Files
There are basically three ways of getting MP3 songs:
●
From the InternetFrom the Internet

Now, there are Web sites on the Internet which allow you to download MP3 songs.
There are also Web sites which sell popular music from well known artists in MP3 format.
Using your Web browser, you can search for such Web sites and then download MP3
files by purchasing them online.
●
MP3 CDsMP3 CDs

Another way of getting MP3 files is by converting music tracks from traditional music
CDs into MP3 files in your PC. You need to use an MP3 encoding software in order to do
this. MP3 encoders are available on the Internet, and you can just download and use
them to transform your favorite CD collection into MP3 files.
With MP3 encoding software, you may also convert .WAV audio files into MP3 format.
For more information about the operation of MP3 software, please refer to its respec-
tive software help.
Music, especially from recorded artists, is protected by copyright. Distributing or sharing MP3
files without authorization is an infringement against international copyright laws.
