ª Cautions for Storage
Before storing the camera, remove the
card and the battery.
Store all the components in a dry place
with a relatively stable temperature.
(Recommended temperature:
15oC to 25oC,
Recommended humidity: 40% to 60%)
Battery
• Do not leave the camera and the
battery at the place where the
temperature is too high, such as inside
a car during the summer.
• Extremely high or low temperatures
will shorten the life of the battery.
• If the battery is kept in smoky or dusty
places, the terminals may rust and
cause malfunctions.
• Do not allow the battery terminals to
come in contact with metal objects
(such as necklaces, hairpins, etc.).
This can result in a short circuit or heat
generation and, if you touch the
battery in this condition, you may be
badly burned.
• Store the battery in a completely
discharged state. To store the battery
for a long period of time, we
recommend charging it once every
year and storing it again after you
completely use up the charged
capacity.
Card
• Do not leave the card in places where
there is high temperature or direct
sunlight, or where electromagnetic
waves or static electricity are easily
generated.
• Do not bend or drop the card. The
card or the recorded content may be
damaged.
• After use, be sure to remove the card
from the camera.
• Do not touch the terminals on the back
of the card with your fingers. Do not
allow dirt, dust or water to enter it.
AC adaptor
• If you use the AC adaptor near a radio,
radio reception may be disturbed.
Keep the AC adaptor 1 m or more
away from radio.
• When the AC adaptor is in use, it may
generate whirring sounds. However,
this is not a malfunction.
• After use, be sure to disconnect the
AC mains lead. (If it is left connected,
a minute amount of current is
consumed.)
• Keep the terminal of the AC adaptor
and battery clean.
ª Screen
LCD monitor
• In a place with drastic temperature
changes, condensation may form on
the LCD monitor. Wipe it with a soft,
dry cloth.
• If the camera is extremely cold when
you turn the camera on, the image on
the LCD monitor is slightly darker than
usual at first. However, as the internal
temperature increases, it goes back to
the normal brightness.
Viewfinder
• Do not direct the Viewfinder or lens to
the sun. Internal components may be
seriously damaged.
