Places to Avoid

Do not use or store the camera in the following types of locations:

In the rain or in very humid, dirty or dusty places.

Places subject to extreme temperature rises, such as in direct sunlight or a closed car in summer. Extremely cold places.

Places subject to strong vibration.

Places affected by smoke or steam.

Places subject to strong magnetic fields (such as near motors, transformers or magnets).

In contact with chemicals such as pesticides or next to rubber or vinyl products for long periods of time.

Sandy places such as beaches or deserts, or places where there is wind-borne sand.

Note on Condensation

If the camera is carried suddenly from a cold location into a warm location, water droplets may form on the inside of the camera or on the lens (condensation). When this occurs, switch the camera off and wait an hour before using the camera.

Cleaning Your Camera

Use a blower brush to remove dust from the lens, LCD or viewfinder, and then wipe lightly with a soft, dry cloth. Leaving the lens extended for long periods can allow dust to enter the camera’s viewfinder. However, this does not affect the image.

Do not scratch hard objects against the lens, LCD or viewfinder as these surfaces are easily damaged.

Clean the body of the camera with a soft, dry, cloth. Do not use volatile substances such as thinners, benzine or insecticide, as these may react with the camera body finish and cause deformation or remove the coating.

Checked Baggage

When traveling by air, do not place your camera in the check-in baggage. Baggage handling at airports may subject baggage to violent shocks, and the camera may be damaged internally even when no external damage is visible.

To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not expose the camera to rain or moisture.

CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT REMOVE COVER (OR BACK). NO USER-SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE. REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL.
