Notes
on
the
monitor:
The
monitor
may contain a few pixels
that
are always lit or
that
do
not
light.
This
is
common
to
all
TFT
LCD
monitors and does
not
indicate a malfunction. Images recorded
with
the
product
are unaffected.
Images in the
monitor
may be difficult
to
see
in a
bright
light.
Do
not
apply pressure
to
the
monitor,
as
this could cause damage or malfunction. Dust
or
lint
on the
monitor
can be removed
with
a blower. Stains can be removed by
wiping
lightly
with
a soft cloth or chamois leather. Should the
monitor
break, care should
be
taken
to
avoid injury
from broken glass and
to
prevent liquid crystal from the
monitor
touching the skin or entering
the eyes and
mouth.
Moire:
Moire
is
an interference pattern created by
the
interaction
of
an
image containing a
regular, repeating grid, such
as
the pattern
of
weave in cloth or windows in a building,
with
the
camera image sensor grid.
If
you notice moire in your photographs,
try
changing
the
distance
to
the
subject, zooming in and out, or changing the angle between the subject and
the
camera.
Batteries:
Dirt on
the
battery terminals can prevent the camera from functioning and should be
removed
with
a soft,
dry
cloth before
use.
Batteries may leak or explode
if
improperly handled. Observe the following precautions when
handling batteries:
Turn
the
product
off
before replacing
the
battery.
The battery may become
hot
when used for extended periods. Observe due caution when
handling the battery.
Use
only
batteries approved for
use
in this equipment.
Do
not
expose
the
battery
to
flame or excessive heat.
After removing
the
battery from the camera, be sure
to
replace the terminal cover.
Charge the battery before
use.
When taking photographs on
important
occasions, ready a
spare
EN-EL9a
battery and keep
it
fully charged. Depending on your location,
it
may be
difficult
to
purchase replacement batteries on short notice.
On
cold days,
the
capacity
of
batteries tends
to
decrease.
Be
sure the battery
is
fully charged
before taking photographs outside in cold weather. Keep a spare battery in a warm place and
exchange
the
two
as
necessary. Once warmed, a cold battery may recover some
of
its charge.
Continuing
to
charge the battery after
it
is
fully charged can impair battery performance.
Used
batteries are a valuable resource.
Please
recycle used batteries in accord
with
local
regulations.
