Warning
Do not place the camera and its accessories within the reach of small
children.
1. If the product falls or is operated accidentally, it may cause serious
personal injuries.
2. Wrapping the strap around a neck may cause suffocation.
3. To avoid the risk of a small accessory such as the battery or memory
cards from being swallowed by mistake, keep them out of the reach
of small children. Seek medical attention immediately if an accessory
is accidentally swallowed.
When traveling, take the Worldwide Service Network listing that is
included in the package. This will be useful if you experience problems
abroad.
When the camera has not been used for a long time, confirm that it is still
working properly, particularly prior to taking important pictures (such as
at a wedding or when traveling). Contents of the recording cannot be
guaranteed if recording, playback or transferring your data to a
computer, etc. is not possible due to a malfunction of your camera or
recording media (memory cards), etc.
To keep the battery in optimum condition, avoid storing it in a fully
charged state or in high temperatures.
If the battery is left inserted and the camera is not used for a long time,
the battery will over-discharge and shorten the battery’s life.
Charging the battery a day before use or on the day of use is
recommended.
The AC plug cord provided with this camera is developed exclusively for
the battery charger D-BC90. Do not use it with other devices.
Do not subject the camera to high temperatures or high humidity. Do not
leave the camera in a vehicle, as the temperature can get very high.
Do not subject the camera to strong vibrations, shocks, or pressure. Use
a cushion to protect the camera from vibrations of motorcycles,
automobiles, or ships.
The temperature range for camera use is -10°C to 40°C (14°F to 104°F).
The monitor may appear black at high temperatures, but will return to
normal at normal temperatures.
The monitor may respond more slowly at low temperatures. This is due
to liquid crystal properties, and is not a malfunction.
Sudden temperature changes will cause condensation on the inside and
outside of the camera. Place the camera in your bag or a plastic bag,
and remove it after temperatures of the camera and surroundings are
equalized.
Avoid contact with garbage, mud, sand, dust, water, toxic gases, or salt.
These could cause the camera to breakdown. Wipe the camera to dry
off any rain or water drops.
Do not press the monitor with excessive force. This could cause it to
break or malfunction.
