The AC plug cord provided with this camera is developed exclusively for
the battery charger D-BC68P. 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 0°C to 40°C (32°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.
Be careful not to overtighten the screw in the tripod socket when using
a tripod.
Do not clean the camera with organic solvents such as thinner, alcohol,
and benzine.
Use a lens brush to remove dust accumulated on the lens. Never use a
spray blower for cleaning as it may damage the lens.
Please contact your nearest service center for professional cleaning of
the CMOS sensor. (This will involve a fee.)
Periodic inspections are recommended every one to two years to
maintain high performance.
Do not store the camera with preservatives or chemicals. Storage in high
temperatures and high humidity can cause mold to grow on the camera.
Remove the camera from its case and store it in a dry and well-ventilated
place.
Avoid using or storing the camera where it may be exposed to static
electricity or electrical interference.
Avoid using or storing the camera in direct sunlight or in locations where
it may be exposed to rapid changes in temperature or to condensation.
The SD Memory Card is
equipped with a write-protect
switch. Setting the switch to
LOCK prevents new data from
being recorded on the card, the
stored data from being deleted,
and the card from being
formatted by the camera or
computer.
The SD Memory Card may be
hot when removing the card immediately after using the camera.
Do not remove the SD Memory Card or turn off the power while the card
is being accessed. This may cause the data to be lost or the card to be
damaged.
Do not bend the SD Memory Card or subject it to violent impact. Keep it
away from water and store away from high temperatures.
Do not remove the SD Memory Card while formatting. The card may be
damaged and become unusable.
Data on the SD Memory Card may be deleted in the following
circumstances. We do not accept any liability for data that is deleted if
1. the SD Memory Card is mishandled by the user.
2. the SD Memory Card is exposed to static electricity or electrical
interference.
3. the SD Memory Card has not been used for a long time.
4. the SD Memory Card or the battery is removed while the card is being
accessed.
If the SD Memory Card is not used for a long time, the data on the card
may become unreadable. Be sure to regularly make a backup of
important data on a computer.
