LCD MONITOR CARE
Although the LCD monitor is manufactured using high precision technology, there may occasionally be a
lack of color 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.

recording or duplication of such material may be contrary to copyright laws.Taking pictures or images of

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.
Do not store the battery when it is fully charged.
When storing the battery for extended periods, recharge it for five minutes every six months. The battery
may not be able to be charged if completely exhausted.
•A special built-in, long-life battery supplies power to the clock and memory when the camera is turned off.
If the camera resets each time it is turned off, the battery is exhausted. It must be replaced at a Minolta
service facility.
•Keep battery and camera charger contacts clean. Dirty contacts can prevent charging. If the contacts
become dirty, wipe them with a cotton swab.
