Inserting the batteries

Your DTC 650 camera is designed for alka-
line, lithium or nickel-metal hydride (NiMH)
AA batteries. To insert the batteries open your
camera, insert 10 x 1.5 Volt AA batteries as
instructed in the battery compartment (15).
Pay attention to the correct insertion direc-
tion/polarity (+/-).
Note: The external power source can be
accessed with 6V. The batteries are bridged
24
when the camera is connected to an exter-
nalpower source. In other words, the bat-
tery cannot be charged inside the camera,
not even using a solar panel. Please do not
use a 12V power source as that would dam-
age the camera. In such a case, you have
no claim under guarantee.

Checking the battery level

Switch your DTC 650 to the "SETUP" mode
(control switch (11) centre). The battery status
will be indicated on the bottom left edge of
the LCD monitor (8).
Note: We recommend using high efficien-
cy batteries for optimum performance. You
can prolong battery life if you create shorter
video sequences.

Using the memory card

You need a memory card (SD/SDHC-card) in
order to store images or video clips. Your DTC
650 camera supports memory cards of up to
32 GB.
Inserting the memory card
Insert a memory card with the golden con-
tactors into the memory card slot (9) inside
the device. Ensure that the SD card is not
write-protected (SD cards slider is not in the
"lock" mode).
Switch your DTC 650 to "Menu" mode (main
switch "centre"). When your DTC 650 camera
gives off a beep that means that either no
memory card has been inserted, it was not
correctly inserted or it is not compatible. The
LCD monitor will display a "No card" message
in red. If no beeping signal is sounded, you can
continue to adjust the camera.
Note: If the SD card was used to store data
in other devices, reformat the SD card on a
PC. By reformatting it all all old data will
be deleted from the SD card to ensure er-
ror-free functioning. If the SD card was only
