Appendix
. Power Supply
• Use only the special rechargeable lithium ion battery (NP-60) to power this camera.
Use of any other type of battery is not supported.
• The camera does not have a separate battery for the clock. The date and time
settings of the camera are cleared about two days after power is cut off from the
battery. If this happens, be sure to reconfigure these settings after power is
restored (page 100).
. Data Error Precautions
Your digital camera is manufactured using precision digital components. Any of the
following creates the risk of corruption of data in camera memory.
• Removing the battery or memory card while the camera is performing some
operation
• Removing the battery or memory card while the back lamp is flashing green after
turning off the camera
• Disconnecting the USB cable while communication is in progress
• Using a battery that is low
• Other abnormal operations
Any of the above conditions can cause an error message to appear on the monitor
screen (page 131). Perform the action indicated by the message that appears.
. Operating Environment
• Operating Temperature: 0 to 40°C (32 to 104°F)
• Operating Humidity: 10 to 85% (non condensation)
• Do not place the camera in any of the following locations.
– In an area exposed to direct sunlight, or large amounts of moisture or dust
– Near an air conditioner or in other areas subjected to extreme temperature or
humidity
– Inside of a motor vehicle on a hot day, or in an area subjected to strong vibration
. Condensation
Sudden and extreme temperature changes, such as when the camera is moved from
the outdoors on a cold winter day into a warm room, can cause water droplets called
“condensation” to form on the interior and the exterior of the camera, which creates
the risk of malfunction. To prevent condensation from forming seal the camera in a
plastic bag before changing locations. Then leave the bag sealed to allow the air
inside to naturally change to the same temperature as the air in the new location.
After that, remove the camera from the bag and open the battery cover for a few
hours.
