DC1400 turns off

[diver 86]

New DC1400 turns itself off during dive if not being used. I've gone into settings and found a selections for auto off. Options are off 1, off 2, off 3, or off. I assume that setting this to "off" disengages the auto off function, and the camera would just stay on until battery ran down. Anyone know how to keep camera on through the dive?

Never mind, it's working now.

Turn auto off to the off position, or chose one of the wait times and deal with it. I let mine go to auto off, then turn it on.

After 1 minute the lcd screen will shut off if there is no activity. A press of any button, other than power, will wake the screen. This feature does not have a menu setting.

Yeah, and that can confuse me: "Do I need to hit the power button, or will that actually turn it off?" So I hit the zoom lightly and see if it lights up.
