Care to be Taken During Handling
•
Do not clean the product with organic solvents such as thinner or alcohol
benzene.
•
Places of high temperature and humidity should be avoided. Particular care
should be taken regarding vehicles, which can become very hot inside.
•
Storing the camera where pesticides and chemicals are handled should be
avoided.
Remove from case and store in a well-ventilated place to prevent the camera
from becoming moldy during storage.
•
Do not use the camera where it may come in contact with rain, water or any
other liquid, because the camera is not weather, water, or liquid resistant. Should
the camera get wet from rain, splashing water, or any other liquid, wipe it off
immediately with a dry soft cloth.
•
Ensure that the camera is not subjected to substantial vibrations, shocks or
pressure.
Place the camera on a cushion for protection when the camera is subjected to
the vibrations of a motorbike, car, or ship, etc.
•
The liquid crystal display will become black at temperatures of approximately
60°C (140°F) but will return to normal when normal temperatures are returned to.
•
The response speed of the liquid crystal display becomes slow at low
temperatures.
This is due to the properties of the liquid crystal and is not a fault.
•
Remove dust from the lens and viewfinder using a blower or clean off dust using
a lens brush.
•
Periodic checks are recommended every 1 to 2 years in order to maintain high-
performance.

•
If the camera is subjected to rapid temperature changes, condensation may form
on the inside and outside of the camera. Therefore put the camera in a bag or
plastic bag, and take the camera out when the difference in temperature has
subsided.
•
The temperature range in which the camera can be used is 0°C to 40°C (32°F to
104°F).
•
Avoid contact with garbage, dirt, sand, dust, water, toxic gases, salt, etc. as this
may cause damage to the camera. If rain or drops of water get onto the camera,
please wipe dry.
