Care to be Taken During Handling

•Do not clean the product with organic solvents such as thinner or alcohol benzene.

•Places of high temperature and humidity should be avoided. Particular care should be taken regarding vehicles, which can become very hot inside.

•Storing the camera where pesticides and chemicals are handled should be avoided.

Remove from case and store in a well-ventilated place to prevent the camera from becoming moldy during storage.

•Do not use the camera where it may come in contact with rain, water or any other liquid, because the camera is not weather, water, or liquid resistant. Should the camera get wet from rain, splashing water, or any other liquid, wipe it off immediately with a dry soft cloth.

•Ensure that the camera is not subjected to substantial vibrations, shocks or pressure.

Place the camera on a cushion for protection when the camera is subjected to the vibrations of a motorbike, car, or ship, etc.
