LCD monitor care
• The LCD monitor is manufactured using high-precision technology and more than 99.99% of the
pixels operate properly. Less than 0.01% of the monitor pixels are displayed as color or bright
points; this is not monitor defect and does not affect the recorded image.
• Do not apply pressure to the surface of the LCD monitor; it may be permanently damaged.
• In cold temperatures, the LCD monitor may become temporarily dark. When the camera warms
up, the display will function normally.
• If fingerprints are on the LCD monitor, 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.
• In cold environments, the use of Ni-MH batteries is recommended over alkaline batteries for bet-
ter performance.
• If batteries have been exhausted when used in the camera, do not reload them even if their
charge seems to recover over time. These batteries will interfere with normal camera operation.
Operating temperatures and conditions
• This camera has been designed for use in temperatures from 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F).
• 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.
