DIGITAL DISK CAMERA
■ Cautions before capturing important
images
œ Before capturing important images, make sure that the
digital disk camera is operating properly and in
condition to capture the image properly.
œ Sanyo Electric shall not be held responsible for any
losses that result from images that could not be
recorded, are erased, destroyed, or damaged in any
way due to a problem with the digital disk camera, any
of its accessories, or its software.
■ Cautions concerning
copyrights
œ The images you capture with
your digital disk camera are for
your own private use, any
other use may violate the
rights of copyrights owners.
■ Cautions when cleaning the digital disk camera and AC adapter/charger
Cleaning procedure
1 Turn off the digital disk camera and
remove the battery pack. (If the AC
adapter/charger is connected,
unplug its power cord.)
2 Remove the dirt with a soft cloth.
3 If the digital disk camera is
extremely dirty, wipe with a soft
cloth moistened with a mild
detergent diluted with water and
wrung dry.
Caution
œ Do not use benzene or thinner products to clean
the digital disk camera or AC adapter/charger.
Doing so may cause deformation, discoloration, or
paint peeling. When using a chemically treated
cloth, carefully read its instructions and warnings.
œ Do not spray insecticides, or volatile sprays on the
digital disk camera or AC adapter/charger. Do not
leave rubber or vinyl objects against the digital disk
camera or AC adapter/charger for a long period.
They may cause deformation, discoloration, or
paint peeling.
■ Cautions when cleaning the lens
œ If the lens gets dirty, use a commercially available air blower or a cleaning cloth for
photographic equipment to clean it.
œ It is also possible to clean the viewfinder (see page 166).
■ Cautions concerning the battery pack terminals
œ Periodically clean with a dry cloth the terminals of the battery pack, digital disk camera, and AC
adapter/charger.
œ Do not touch the terminals with your bare hands. Doing so will allow contaminants from your
hands to adhere to the terminals and oxidize, increasing the contact resistance. If the contact
resistance increases, the usable life of the battery pack will diminish and recharging may
become impossible.
■ Cautions when not using the digital disk camera
œ Attach the lens cap whenever you are not using the digital disk camera.
When not using the digital disk camera for a long period
œ Remove the battery pack. However, when the battery pack is removed for a long time, the
digital disk camera functions may begin to not work properly. Periodically reinstall the battery
pack and check the digital disk camera functions.
œ If the battery pack is left in the digital disk camera, a small amount of power is still used even if
the digital disk camera is turned off. If the battery pack is left in the digital disk camera for a
long period, it may become completely discharged and loose its ability to be recharged again.
