CARE AND STORAGE
OPERATING TEMPERATURES AND CONDITIONS
• This camera has been designed for use in temperatures from 0°C to 40°C (32°F to
104°F).
• Never leave the camera exposed to extreme high temperatures, such as in a car
parked in the sun, or to extreme humidity.
• When taking the camera from a cold to a warm environment, place it in a sealed
plastic bag to prevent condensation from forming. Allow the camera to come to room
temperature before removing it from the bag.
CLEANING
• If the camera or the outside of the lens is dirty, gently wipe it with a soft, clean, dry
cloth. If the camera or lens comes in contact with sand, gently blow away loose
particles. Wiping may scratch the surface.
• To clean the lens surface, first blow away any dust or sand, then, if necessary,
moisten a lens tissue or soft cloth with lens cleaning fluid and gently wipe the lens.
• Never use organic solvents to clean the camera.
• Never touch the lens surface with your fingers.
LCD MONITOR CARE
• Although the LCD monitor is manufactured using high precision technology, there
may occasionally be a lack of colour or bright points on the LCD monitor.
• Do not apply pressure to the surface of the LCD monitor; it may be permanently
damaged.
• In a cold environment, the LCD monitor may become temporarily dark. When the
camera warms up, the display will function normally.
• The LCD monitor may be slow to react in low temperatures or may turn dark in a hot
environment. When the camera reaches normal operating temperature, the display
will function normally.
• If fingerprints are on the LCD monitor surface, gently wipe with a soft, clean, dry
cloth.
CAMERA CARE
• Do not subject the camera to shock or impact.
• Turn off the camera when transporting.
• This camera is neither waterproof nor splashproof. Inserting or removing batteries or
the CompactFlash card, or operating the camera with wet hands may damage the
camera.
• When at the beach or near water, take care not to expose the camera to water or
sand. Water, sand, dust, or salt can damage the camera.
• Do not leave the camera under direct sunlight. Do not point the lens directly at the
sun; the CCD may be damaged.
