Setting the Battery Type
When the type of batteries being used is different from the item you selected,
the battery level will not be correctly determined. Make sure that the correct
battery type is selected in the [AA Battery Type] setting. Usually, there is no
problem using [Auto-detect]. However in low temperatures and when using
batteries that were stored for long periods of time, set the appropriate battery
type so the camera can correctly determine the remaining battery level.
