cotton swab and reinserting the battery pack a few times.

little by putting it in your pocket, for example, ensuring that the terminals do not touch

any metal objects.

• If these measures do not help and the battery pack still runs out of power soon after

charging, it has reached the end of its life. Purchase a new battery pack.

The lens is not retracted.

turn the camera on, and then turn it off again (=
