When traveling, take the Worldwide Service Network listing that is included in the
package. This will be useful if you experience problems abroad.
When the camera has not been used for a long time, confirm that it is still working
properly, particularly prior to taking important pictures (such as at a wedding or when
traveling). Contents of the recording cannot be guaranteed if recording, playback or
transferring your data to a computer, etc. is not possible due to a malfunction of your
camera or recording media (SD Memory Card), etc.
To keep the battery in optimal condition, avoid storing it in a fully charged state or in
high temperatures.
If the battery is left inserted and the camera is not used for a long time, the battery will
over-discharge and shorten the battery’s life.
Charging the battery a day before use or on the day of use is recommended.
The AC plug cord provided with this camera is developed exclusively for the battery
charger D-BC90. Do not use it with other devices.
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 temperature range for camera use is 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F).
The monitor may appear black at high temperatures, but will return to normal at
normal temperatures.
The monitor 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
temperature 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 forcefully on the monitor. This could cause it to break or malfunction.
Be careful not to overtighten the screw in the tripod socket when using a tripod.
