ªCautions for Storage

Before storing the digital camera, take the card out and detach the battery. Store all the components in a dry place with a relatively stable temperature. (Recommended temperature:

59oF to 77oF (15oC to 25oC), Recommended humidity: 40% to 60%)

•Do not bend or drop the card. The card or the recorded content may be damaged.

•After use, be sure to remove the card from the digital camera.

•Do not touch the terminals on the back of the card with your fingers. Do not allow dirt, dust or water to enter it.

Digital camera

•Wrap it with a soft cloth to prevent dust from getting into the camera.

•Do not leave the camera in places that expose it to high temperature.

Battery

•Do not leave the camera and the battery at the place where the temperature is too high, such as inside the car during the summer.

•Extremely high or low temperatures will shorten the life of the battery.

•If the battery is kept in smoky or dusty places, the terminals may rust and cause malfunctions.

•Do not allow the battery terminals to come in contact with metal objects (such as necklaces, hairpins, etc.). This can result in a short circuit or heat generation and, if you touch the battery in this condition, you may be badly burned.

•Store the battery in a completely discharged state. To store the battery for a long period of time, we recommend charging it once every year and storing it again after you completely use up the charged capacity.

Card

•When the card is being read, do not remove the card, turn off the power, or subject it to vibration or impact.

•Do not leave the card in places where there is high temperature or direct sunlight, or where electromagnetic waves or static electricity are easily generated.

AC adaptor

•If the battery is warm, charging takes a longer time than normal.

•If you use the AC adaptor near a radio, radio reception may be disturbed. Keep the AC adaptor 100 cm or more away from radio.

•When the AC adaptor is in use, it may generate whirring sounds. However, this is normal.

•After use, be sure to disconnect the AC cable. (If it is left connected, a minute amount of current is consumed.)

•Keep the electrodes of the AC adaptor and battery clean at all times.

ªLCD Monitor/Viewfinder/Lens Ring

LCD monitor

•In a place with drastic temperature changes, condensation may form on the LCD monitor. Wipe it with soft dry cloth.

•If the digital camera is extremely cold when you turn the power on, the image on the LCD monitor is slightly darker than usual at first. However, as the internal temperature increases, it goes back to the normal brightness.

Extremely high precision technology is employed to produce the LCD monitor screen featuring a total of approximately 114,000 pixels. The result is more than 99.99% effective pixels with a mere 0.01% of the pixels inactive or always lit. However, this is not a malfunction and does not affect the recorded picture.
