Where is the clock battery in Canon PowerShot A1400

Hello!

A Canon PowerShot A1400 came to me as a gift, however the clock battery seems to be gone, because every time I take the batteries  out it forgets the date and hour.

Where exactly is the clock battery and how do I replace it?

If it is like any contemporary camera it is probably soldered on to the main processor board and you don't I am afraid unless you strip down the camera. They all fail in the end.

Try this

Make sure the external batt.... are fully charged ➡insert them and let the camera sit for about 24-48 hours before starting up the camera,  in many cameras that method works fine, likely the internal battery can hold the time again.

When is the camera purchased and do you still have warranty on it ?
