Precautions and care instructions
Storing the Digital-Modul-R
If you will not be using the Digital-Modul-R for a long
period, it is recommended that you
1. switch it off (see p. 81),
2. remove the memory card (see p. 80) and
3. remove the battery (see p. 77) (after a maximum of
3 months, the date and time entered are lost, see
p. 87)
General precautions
Do not use the Digital-Modul-R in the immediate vicini-
ty of devices with powerful magnetic, electrostatic or
electromagnetic fields (e.g. induction ovens, microwave
ovens, television sets or computer monitors, video
games consoles, cell phones, radio equipment).
• If you place the Digital-Modul-R on or immediately
adjacent to a television set, the magnetic field could
impair the pictures recorded.
• The same applies for use in the vicinity of cell
phones.
• Strong magnetic fields, e.g. from speakers or large
electric motors, can damage the stored data or the
pictures.
• If the Digital-Modul-R does not work correctly as a
result of the effects of electromagnetic fields, switch
if off, remove the battery or unplug it from the
optionally available mains adapter, re-insert the bat-
tery or reconnect to the mains adapter and then
switch it on again.
Do not use the Digital-Modul-R in the immediate vicini-
ty of radio transmitters or high voltage power lines.
• Their electromagnetic fields can also interfere with
picture recordings.
Protect the Digital-Modul-R against contact with insect
sprays and other aggressive chemicals. Petroleum
spirit, thinner and alcohol may not be used for clean-
ing.
• Certain chemicals and liquids can damage the
Digital-Modul-R’s housing or the surface finish.
• As rubber and plastics sometimes emit aggressive
chemicals, they should not remain in contact with
the Digital-Modul-R for a long time.
Ensure that no sand or dust can penetrate into the
Digital-Modul-R, e.g. on the beach.
• Sand and dust can damage the camera and the
memory card. Take particular care when inserting
and removing the card.
Ensure that no water can penetrate into the Digital-
Modul-R, e.g. in snow and rain or on the beach.
• Moisture can cause malfunctions and even perma-
nent damage to the camera, the Digital-Modul-R, and
the memory card.
• If salt water spray gets onto the Digital-Modul-R, wet
a soft cloth with tap water, wring it out thoroughly
and wipe the Digital-Modul-R with it. Then wipe
thoroughly with a dry cloth.
