Um... read the manual?

If you don't have a manual for it you can probably find one online - google is your friend :)

I suspect the top button is for the basic camera settings - the head symbol is probably for portraits, auto is self-explanatory, m might be for manual, where you have to set everything yourself.

The button on the side... probably for focus? af may be autofocus, mf manual focus? Just guessing as I don't know your camera, but I'd suggest setting everything to "auto" for now.
