    • To release the battery, gently push the switch off the top of the battery and pull the battery out of the casing.

    • Place the new battery in the casing with the four metal connections (small squares on the bottom of the battery)in the bottom right hand corner of the bottom of the camera. If you look inside the casing you will see where the connections will meet. This will give you more of an idea on the orientation of the battery.
