Care to be Taken During Handling
• Take the Worldwide Service Network 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 during 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.
• The lens on this camera is not exchangeable. The lens is not
removable.
• Do not clean the product with organic solvents such as thinner, alcohol
or benzene.
• Fingerprints and smudges may be removed from the display screen of
the LCD monitor by wiping them gently with a soft, dry cloth.
• 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.
• Ensure that the camera is not subjected to substantial vibrations,
shocks or pressure as this may cause damage, malfunction, or a loss
in waterproof performance. Place the camera on a cushion for
protection when the camera is subjected to the vibrations of a
motorbike, car, ship, etc. If the camera is subjected to substantial
vibrations, shocks or pressure, take your camera to your nearest
PENTAX Service Center and have it checked.
• The temperature range in which the camera can be used is 0°C to 40°C
(32°F to 104°F).
• The liquid crystal display will become black at a high temperature but
will return to normal when normal temperatures are returned to.
