ª Condensation
When condensation has taken
place:
Set the power switch to [OFF] and
leave the digital camera in this
condition for about 1 hour. When
the camera becomes close to the
ambient temperature, the fog
disappears naturally.
ª Cautions for Storage
Before storing the digital camera, take
the card out and detach the battery.
Store all the components in a dry place
with a relatively stable temperature.
(Recommended temperature:
59 F to 77 F (15oC to 25oC),
Recommended humidity: 40% to 60%)
Digital camera
• Wrap it with a soft cloth to prevent dust
from getting into the camera.
• Do not leave the camera in places that
expose it to high temperature.
Battery
• Do not leave the camera and the battery at
the place where the temperature is too
high, such as inside the car during the
midsummer.
• Extremely high or low temperatures will
shorten the life of the battery.
• If the battery is kept in smoky or dusty
places, the terminals may rust and cause
malfunctions.
• Do not allow the battery terminals to come
in contact with metal objects (such as
necklaces, hairpins, etc.). This can result
in a short circuit or heat generation and, if
you touch the battery in this condition, you
may be badly burned.
• Store the battery in a completely
discharged state. To store the battery for a
long period of time, we recommend
charging it once every year and storing it
again after you completely use up the
charged capacity.
Card
• When the card is being read, do not
remove the card, turn off the power, or
subject it to vibration or impact.
• Do not leave the card in places where
there is high temperature or direct sunlight,
or where electromagnetic waves or static
electricity are easily generated.
• Do not bend or drop the card. The card or
the recorded content may be damaged.
• After use, be sure to remove the card from
the digital camera.
• Do not touch the terminals on the back of
the card with your fingers. Do not allow
dirt, dust or water to enter it.
AC adaptor
• If the battery is warm, charging takes a
longer time than normal.
• If you use the AC adaptor near a radio,
radio reception may be disturbed. Keep
the AC adaptor 100 cm or more away from
radio.
• When the AC adaptor is in use, it may
generate whirring sounds. However, this is
normal.
• After use, be sure to disconnect the AC
cable. (If it is left connected, a minute
amount of current is consumed)
• Keep the electrodes of the AC adaptor and
battery clean at all times.
