INTRODUCTION

Never open the battery compartment cover, disconnect the AC adaptor from the camera or unplug it from the wall socket while recording images. Doing so will not only make storage of the current image impossible, it can also corrupt other image data already stored in camera memory.

Operating conditions

This camera is designed for use in temperatures ranging from 0° C to 40° C.

Do not use or keep the camera in the following areas.

In areas subject to direct sunlight

In areas subject to high humidity or dust

Near air conditioners, heaters, or other areas subject to temperature extremes

Inside of a closed vehicle, especially one parked in the sun

In areas subject to strong vibration

Condensation

When you bring the camera indoors on a cold day or other- wise expose it to a sudden change of temperature, there is the possibility that condensation can form on the exterior or on interior components. Condensation can cause malfunc- tion of the camera, so you should avoid exposing it to con- ditions that might cause condensation.

To keep condensation from forming, place the camera into a plastic bag before moving it into a location that is much warmer or colder than your current location. Leave it in the plastic bag until the air inside the bag has a chance to reach the same temperature as the new location. If con- densation does form, remove the batteries from the cam- era and leave the battery compartment cover open for a few hours.
