Extending Battery Life  
! Limit the following activities that quickly deplete battery power:  
Reviewing your pictures on the camera screen (see page 41)  
Using Liveview (see page 19)  
Using Quickview (see page 20 and page 36).  
Excessive use of the flash  
! Purchase an optional Kodak 3-volt AC adapter to power your camera (see  
page 102).  
! Purchase an optional Kodak EasyShare camera dock 6000 (see page 67).  
The camera dock 6000 powers your camera, transfers pictures, and is also  
a battery charger for its included Kodak EasyShare Ni-MH rechargeable  
battery pack.  
! Purchase an optional Kodak EasyShare printer dock 6000 (see page 66).  
The printer dock 6000 powers your camera, makes 4 x 6 prints with or  
without a computer, transfers pictures, and is also a battery charger for its  
included Kodak EasyShare Ni-MH rechargeable battery pack.  
! Dirt on the battery contacts can affect battery life. Wipe the contacts with a  
clean, dry cloth before loading batteries in the camera.  
! Battery performance is reduced at temperatures below 41° F (5° C).  
Carry spare batteries when using your camera in cold weather, and keep  
them warm. Do not discard cold batteries that do not work; when they  
return to room temperature, they may be usable.  
Battery Safety and Handling  
! Do not allow batteries to touch metal objects, including coins. Otherwise, a  
battery may short circuit, discharge energy, become hot, or leak.

water has gotten inside the camera, turn off the camera and remove the  
battery and card. Allow all components to air-dry for at least 24 hours  
before using the camera again. If this does not resolve the problem,  
contact customer support (page 92).  
! Clean the lens and camera screen:  
1
2
Blow gently on the lens or camera screen to remove dust and dirt.  
Wipe the lens or camera screen gently with a soft, lint-free cloth or an  
untreated lens-cleaning tissue.  
Do not use cleaning solutions unless they are designed specifically for  
camera lenses. Do not wipe the camera lens or camera screen with  
chemically treated eyeglass lens tissue. It may scratch the lens.

Locating Pictures and Videos on a Card  
Pictures stored on SD/MMC Cards use a standard (DCF-Digital Camera  
Format) agreed upon by many camera manufacturers. This lets you use the  
cards in different cameras. If you use a card reader to retrieve your files, the  
following description of the card file structure may be helpful.  
MISC folder—contains the order files created when you use the Share  
feature to tag files for printing, emailing, and as favorites; also contains the  
address book and album names copied from the computer.  
SYSTEM folder—created and used while updating camera firmware.  
DCIM folder—root level folder, contains the 100K6230 folder. Each time you  
turn on the camera or insert a different card, any empty folders within the  
DCIM folder are removed.  
100K6230 subfolder—initially contains all pictures and videos on the card.

Chapter 12  
Picture Naming Conventions  
! Pictures are named 100_nnnn.JPG, and are numbered in the order in  
which they are taken. The first picture is named 100_0001.JPG; the highest  
number allowed is 100_9999.JPG.  
! When a card contains a picture named 100_9999.JPG in the  
\DCIM\100K6230 folder, subsequent pictures appear in a new folder  
(\DCIM\101K6230), beginning with picture 101_0001.JPG.  
! Even if you transfer pictures to the computer or delete pictures from the  
camera, the camera continues to use consecutive numbers for all  
subsequent pictures. For example, if the last picture taken was  
100_0007.JPG and you delete it, the next picture you take is named  
100_0008.JPG.  
! When you insert a different card into your camera, the next picture number  
is defined by incrementing the higher of the last picture taken by the  
camera, or the highest existing picture number in the folder.  
! If you use the card in a camera other than the Kodak EasyShare CX6230  
zoom digital camera, and that camera manufacturer adheres to this file  
structure standard, the \DCIM folder contains a folder named by that  
camera. For more information, refer to the documentation that  
accompanied that camera.
