Additional information
Precautions
Cleaning
Cleaning the LCD screen
Clean the screen surface with an LCD
cleaning kit (not supplied) to remove
fingerprints, dust, etc.
Cleaning the lens
Wipe the lens with a soft cloth to remove
fingerprints, dust, etc.
Cleaning the DC plug
Clean the DC plug of the AC power adaptor
with a dry cotton bud. Do not use the dirty
plug. Use of the dirty plug may not properly
charge the battery pack.
Cleaning the camera surface
Clean the camera surface with a soft cloth
slightly moistened with water, then wipe the
surface with a dry cloth. Do not use any type
of solvent such as thinner, alcohol or benzine
as this may damage the finish or the casing.
Note on operating temperature
The camera is designed for use within a
temperature range of 0° to 40° (32°F to
104°F). Shooting in extremely cold or hot
locations that exceed this range is not
recommended.
On moisture condensation
If the camera is brought directly from a cold
to a warm location, or is placed in a very
damp room, moisture may condense inside
or outside the camera. This moisture
condensation may cause a malfunction of
the camera.
Moisture condensation occurs easily
when:
• The camera is brought from a cold
location such as a ski slope into a warmly
heated room.
• The camera is taken from an air-
conditioned room or car interior to the hot
outdoors, etc.
To prevent moisture condensation
When bringing the camera from a cold
place to a warm place, seal the camera in a
plastic bag and leave it in the new location
for about an hour. Remove the plastic bag
when the camera has adapted to the new
temperature.
If moisture condensation occurs
Turn off the camera and wait about an hour
for the moisture to evaporate. Note that if
you attempt to shoot with moisture
remaining inside the lens, you will be
unable to record clear images.
The internal rechargeable button
battery
This camera has an internal rechargeable
button battery for maintaining the date and
time and other settings regardless of
whether the power is on or off.
This rechargeable button battery is
continually charged as long as you are using
the camera. However, if you use the camera
for only short periods it discharges
gradually, and if you do not use the camera
at all for about one month it becomes
completely discharged. In this case, be sure
to charge this rechargeable button battery
before using the camera.
Note that even if this rechargeable button
battery is not charged, you can still use the
camera as long as you do not record the date
and time.
Charging the battery
Connect the camera to a wall outlet (wall
socket) using the AC power adapter or
install a charged battery pack, and leave the
camera for 24 hours or more with the
POWER button set to OFF.
