BATTERIES

•Battery performance decreases with temperature. In cold environments, we recommend keeping spare batteries in a warm place, such as the inside of a coat. Batteries can recover their power when they warm up.

•Do not store the battery when it is fully charged.

•When storing the battery for extended periods, recharge it for five minutes every six months. The battery may not be able to be charged if completely exhausted.

•A special built-in, long-life battery supplies power to the clock and memory when the camera is turned off. If the camera resets each time it is turned off, the battery is exhausted. It must be replaced at a Minolta service facility.

•Keep battery and camera charger contacts clean. Dirty contacts can prevent charging. If the contacts become dirty, wipe them with a cotton swab.

LCD MONITOR CARE

•Although the LCD monitor is manufactured using high precision technology, there may occasionally be a lack of color or bright points on the LCD monitor.

•Do not apply pressure to the surface of the LCD monitor; it may be permanently damaged.

•In a cold environment, the LCD monitor may become temporarily dark. When the camera warms up, the display will function normally.

•The LCD monitor may be slow to react in low temperatures or may turn dark in a hot environment. When the camera reaches normal operating temperature, the display will function normally.

•If fingerprints are on the LCD monitor surface, gently wipe with a soft, clean, dry cloth.
