Chapter 6 Maintenance and inspections
6-3 Warning system
6-3-1 Warning description tables
When an error or a problem is detected immediately after the power is turned on or while an operation is underway, the WARNING lamp and lamps inside the viewfinder serve to alert the user.
<Note>
Items are displayed in the following sequence of priority: WARNING lamp > tally lamp > warnings inside the viewfinder. The display accords with this sequence when more than one error has occurred at the same time. However, WIRELESS RF may not be displayed depending on the menu setting selected.
