CAMERA CARE
• Do not subject the camera to shock or impact.
• Turn off the camera when transporting.
• This camera is neither waterproof nor splashproof. Inserting or removing batteries or the memory
card, or operating the camera with wet hands may damage the camera.
• When at the beach or near water, take care not to expose the camera to water or sand.Water,
sand, dust, or salt can damage the camera.
• Do not leave the camera under direct sunlight. Do not point the lens directly at the sun; the CCD
may be damaged.
CLEANING
• If the camera or the outside of the lens is dirty, gently wipe it with a soft, clean, dry cloth. If the
camera or lens comes in contact with sand, gently blow away loose particles.Wiping may scratch
the surface.
• To clean the lens surface, first blow away any dust or sand, then, if necessary, moisten a lens
tissue or soft cloth with lens cleaning fluid and gently wipe the lens.
• Never use organic solvents to clean the camera.
• Never touch the lens surface with your fingers.
STORAGE
• Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from dust and chemicals. For long periods of disuse,
store the camera in an airtight container with a silica-gel drying agent.
• Remove the batteries and memory card from the camera when not in use for extended periods.
• Do not store the camera in an area with naphthalene or mothballs.
• During long periods of storage, operate the camera occasionally. When taking the camera out of
storage, check that the camera is functioning properly before using.
OPERATING TEMPERATURES AND CONDITIONS
• This camera has been designed for use in temperatures from 5°C to 40°C.
• Never leave the camera exposed to extreme high temperatures, such as in a car parked in the sun,
or to extreme humidity.
• When taking the camera from a cold to a warm environment, place it in a sealed plastic bag to
prevent condensation from forming. Allow the camera to come to room temperature before
removing it from the bag.
LCD MONITOR CARE
• Although the LCD monitor is manufactured using high precision technology, there may occasionally
be a lack of colour or bright points on the LCD monitor.
• Do not apply pressure to the surface of the LCD monitor; it may be permanently damaged.
• In a cold environment, the LCD monitor may become temporarily dark. When the camera warms
up, the display will function normally.
• The LCD monitor may be slow to react in low temperatures or may turn dark in a hot environment.
When the camera reaches normal operating temperature, the display will function normally.
• If fingerprints are on the LCD monitor surface, gently wipe with a soft, clean, dry cloth.
BATTERIES
• Battery performance decreases with temperature. In cold environments, we recommend keeping
spare batteries in a warm place, such as the inside of a coat. Batteries can recover their power
when they warm up. As the performance of Ni-MH batteries are less affected by temperature, their
use is recommended when shooting in cold environments.
• Remove the batteries when the camera is not in use for an extended period. Leaking battery fluid
may damage the battery-chamber.
• Occasionally, when using alkaline batteries, the battery-condition indicator will give a false low-
battery-power warning, even though there is enough power capacity. Continue to use the camera;
the low-battery indicator will disappear.
• If batteries have been exhausted when used in the camera, do not reload them even if their change
seems to recover over time. These batteries will interfere with normal camera operation.
