COMMON SENSE CAMERA CARE

1Although your camera is designed for many years of service, it is a precision instrument and requires thoughtful handling. In particular, avoid exposing it to shock, moisture or physical abuse such as dropping it on the floor.

1 If you use your camera at the beach or in a light rain, pro- tect it from moisture. Do not let your camera get wet. Be particularly careful to avoid sand and salt spray at the beach.

2Dropping your camera or letting it strike a hard surface could result in damage even though the camera was in a case. Never subject the camera to vibration such as in the trunk of a car. Never keep your camera in the trunk or the glove compartment of a car: the heat build-up can dam- age it.

2Your camera is computer-controlled so it seldom, if ever, will operate erroneously. If you should experience erroneous op- eration, remove the battery and then reload it.

3If you will not be using your camera for some time, store it where it will be safe from heat, moisture, dust and harmful gases such as napthalene (moth balls and moth flakes).

4Never store the camera in a closed automobile for an extended period.

5It is recommended that undeveloped film and cameras con- taining film be carried as hand luggage when flying. If included in checked-in baggage, X-ray inspections may cause over- printing or other effects.

6Remove soil and dust from the lens, the AF window and the finder with an air blower and by wiping lightly with a piece of soft cloth. If that is not enough, wipe off gently with Lens Clean- ing Paper, moistened slightly with Lens Cleaning Liquid. Do not use organic solvents such as alcohol and benzene.

7Dust and debris in the film compartment can scratch the film. Use a blower brush to clean it.

8Load and remove film away from direct sunlight.

9The operating temperature range of the camera is from –10°C to +40°C.

0Since the performance of the battery will drop in cold weather, warm the battery by placing it inside your garments, etc. be- fore use. The performance of a battery whose performance has temporarily dropped can be restored by returning the bat- tery to normal temperature.

With a few common sense precautions, your camera will give you years of faithful service, great pleasure and wonderful pictures.
