Caring for the Camera

To ensure continued enjoyment of the product, observe the following pre- cautions.

Storage and Use

If the camera will not be used for an extended period, remove the battery and memory card. Do not store or use the camera in locations that are:

•exposed to rain, steam, or smoke

•very humid or extremely dusty

•exposed to direct sunlight or very high temperatures, such as in a closed vehicle on a sunny day

•extremely cold

•subject to strong vibration

•exposed to strong magnetic fi elds, such as near a broadcasting anten- na, power line, radar emitter, motor, transformer, or magnet

•in contact with volatile chemicals such as pesticides

•next to rubber or vinyl products

■Condensation

Sudden increases in temperature, such as occur when entering a heated building on a cold day, can cause condensation inside the camera. If this occurs, turn the camera off and wait an hour before turning it on again. If condensation forms on the memory card, remove the card and wait for the condensation to dissipate.
