Operational temperature recommendations

This camera’s operational temperature is between 32°F to +104°F (0°C to +40°C). Do not use this camera in extreme climates such as that of a hot beach or a skiing resort.

Moisture condensation

If the camera is brought directly from a cold to a warm location, or is placed in a very damp room, moisture may condense inside or outside the camera. Should this occur, the camera will not operate properly. In this case, remove the floppy disk, turn off the camera, and open the floppy disk cover and wait about an hour for the moisture to evaporate.

To prevent moisture condensation

When bringing the camera from a cold place to a warm place, put the camera in a plastic bag and allow it to adapt to room conditions over period of time.

1Be sure to tightly seal the plastic bag containing the camera.

2 Remove the bag when the air temperature inside it has reached the temperature surrounding it (about 1 hour).
