Pentax Efina Digital Camera User Manual


 
28
Do not subject the camera to high temperatures or high humidity. Do not
leave the camera in a vehicle, as the temperature can get very high.
Do not subject the camera to strong vibrations, shocks, or pressure. Use a
cushion to protect the camera from vibrations of motorcycles, automobiles,
or ships.
The display may appear black at high temperatures, but will return to
normal at normal temperatures.
The display may respond more slowly at low temperatures. This is due to
liquid crystal properties, and is not a malfunction.
Sudden temperature changes will cause condensation on the inside and
outside of the camera. Place the camera in your bag or a plastic bag, and
remove it after the temperatures of the camera and surroundings are
equalized.
Avoid contact with garbage, mud, sand, dust, water, toxic gases, or salt.
These could cause the camera to breakdown. Wipe the camera to dry off
any rain or water drops.
Do not press the display with excessive force. This could cause it to break
or malfunction.
Be careful not to sit down with the camera in your back pocket as this may
damage the exterior of the camera or the display.
Be careful not to overtighten the tripod screw when using a tripod.
Do not clean the camera with organic solvents such as thinner, alcohol or
benzine.
Use a lens brush to remove dust accumulated on the lens. Never use a
spray blower for cleaning as it may damage the lens.
Do not store the camera with preservatives or chemicals. Storage in high
temperatures and high humidity can cause mold to grow on the camera.
Remove the camera from its case and store it in a dry and well-ventilated
location.
Avoid using or storing the camera where it may be exposed to static
electricity or electrical interference.
