■Precautions
•Do not use any batteries other than the Ricoh DB-20L.
•Use only a Ricoh BJ-1 battery charger to charge the
battery.
•Do not use the BJ-1 battery charger to charge
batteries other than the DB-20L battery.
•Charge the battery in a well ventilated area with an
ambient temperature of 10°C –40°C (50°F –104°F).
•When the battery reaches the end of its service life,
even if charged correctly, it will be effective for shorter
and shorter periods. Replace with a new battery.
•After charging, the battery will feel hot, but this is
normal.
•After charging, remove the power plug from the
electrical outlet. Failure to do so may result in fire.
Loading the Battery
Load the battery (rechargeable lithium ion battery)
before operating the camera.
1
Check that the camera is turned off, and
then open the battery cover by pressing
and sliding it in the direction shown.
See
•“Turning the Camera On and Off”(p.30).
2
Load the battery.
Important
Note
•Before using the camera for
the first time, be sure to
charge the battery. (The
battery leaves the factory in
an uncharged state.) See
“Charging the Battery”. (p.21)
Important
Note
•Do not bring metallic objects,
such as a needle, into
contact with the battery
contact surface or electrical
connections. Electrostatic
damage could result.

Close the battery cover until it clicks into position.
●Shooting and Playback Guidelines
The table below shows the approximate
recording and playback times, as measured
under the following test conditions:
[Test conditions]
During shooting: Shoot continuously in shooting
mode with the power turned on
(shoot at intervals of 30
seconds, without turning the
camera off in the middle, with
the flash fired 50%, at a
temperature of 20°C (4°F))
During playback: Leave the camera continuously
turned on in playback mode at
a temperature of 20°C (4°F)
Tips
Tips to Extend Recording and
Playback Times
•The battery life indicated on the previous page
tends to decrease depending on the ambient
temperature.
In a cold environment, warming the battery by
hand, for example, may allow you to take more
pictures.
•Increased use of the flash or zoom feature or the
LCD monitor will accelerate expiration of the
battery. Keep their usage to a minimum.
•Copying or erasing images repeatedly will also
accelerate expiration of the battery.
•The battery life may be extended by shooting
images using the viewfinder with the LCD monitor
closed.

■Handling Precautions
•Read the instruction manual supplied with the battery
before using it.
•Use only the specified lithium ion battery. Check the
type of battery in “Accessories”(p.143).
•Clean the contact area of the battery terminal and the
battery with a dry cloth before loading.
•If the camera is used continuously for a long period,
the battery may become hot. Allow to cool before
unloading it.
•Except when charging the battery, store the charger
and the battery separately.
•Store the battery in the case provided.
•If the camera is not to be used for a long period,
discharge the battery completely before removing it
from the camera and store in a cool place. Recharge
the battery fully before reusing the camera.
Note
•When using the camera for an extended period near an electrical
source, it is recommended to use an AC adapter (optional). See
“Connecting an AC Adapter”(p.25).
•It is advisable to have a spare battery handy when powering the
camera by the battery alone.
•The battery symbol ( ) lights to show that the battery voltage is low.
Recharge the battery. See “Charging the Battery”(p.21).

Getting Started
1
Connecting an AC Adapter
When using the camera for long periods of time to
record or playback images or when connecting the
camera to a personal computer, connect an AC adapter
(optional) to the camera and power the camera from a
household electrical source.
Using the AC Adapter
Before using the AC adapter, be sure to read the
safety precautions in the accompanying manual.
1
Check that the camera is turned off.
Connect the AC adapter cable to the power
supply terminal (DC input) on the camera.
See
•“Turning the Camera On and Off”(p.30).
2
Insert the power plug into the electrical
outlet.
Note
•If the battery is loaded in the camera while it is connected to the
household power source, the camera is powered from the AC source
and not by the battery. Unload the battery when using the camera for
long periods of time.
Important
Note
•Insert the power plug and connection cable securely. If the plug or
cable works loose during recording, the data may be lost or damaged.
•If you connect or disconnect the AC adapter while operating the
camera (recording, playback, or erasing), the camera will switch off to
determine the power source. This may cause the data to be lost or
damaged. To avoid this, connect or disconnect the AC adapter while
the camera is turned off.
•Disconnect the AC adapter from the camera and electrical outlet if the
camera will not be used for a long period of time.

This section explains the types and usage of
SmartMedia memory cards.
What is a SmartMedia Memory Card?
Files are recorded as data on the SmartMedia memory
card in your camera. The following types of SmartMedia
memory cards can be used:
•Capacity:
2 MB, 4 MB, 8 MB, 16 MB, 32 MB, 64 MB, 128MB
•Operating voltage: 3.3 V
■Protecting Against Accidental Writing
Attaching a write protect pad to a SmartMedia
memory card will prevent accidental erasure or
overwriting of recorded files.
Remove the write protect pad from the SmartMedia
memory card to record or erase data.
Note
•If the write protect pad gets dirty, wipe it clean with a soft, dry cloth.
■Handling Precautions
●SmartMedia Memory Cards

SmartMedia Memory Cards
Note
•There are numerous types of
SmartMedia memory cards.
Before using a commercially
available SmartMedia
memory card, check with the
manufacturer that it is
compatible with your camera.
