Caring for
the
Camera and Battery: Cautions
Do
not
drop:
The product may malfunction
if
subjected
to
strong shocks or vibration.
Keep
dry:
This product
is
not
waterproof, and may malfunction
if
immersed in water or exposed
to
high levels
of
humidity. Rusting
of
the
internal mechanism can cause irreparable damage.
Avoid
sudden
changes
in
temperature:
Sudden changes in temperature, such
as
those that occur
when entering
or
leaving a heated
building
on a cold
day,
can
cause condensation inside the
device.
To
prevent condensation, place
the
device in a carrying
case
or plastic bag before
exposing
it
to
sudden changes in temperature.
Keep
away
from
strong
magnetic
fields:
Do
not
use
or store this device in the vicinity
of
equipment
that
generates strong electromagnetic radiation
or
magnetic fields. Strong static charges or
the
magnetic fields produced by
equipment
such
as
radio transmitters could interfere with the
monitor, damage data stored on the
memory
card,
or
affect
the
product's internal circuitry.
Do
not
leave
the
lens
pointed
atthe
sun:
Do
not
leave the lens pointed at
the
sun
or
other strong
light
source for an extended period. Intense
light
may cause
the
image sensor
to
deteriorate or
produce a
white
blur effect in photographs.
Turn
the
product
off
before
removing
or
disconnecting
the
power
source:
Do
not
unplug
the
product
or
remove
the
battery while the product
is
on or while images are being recorded or deleted.
Forcibly cutting power in these circumstances could result in
loss
of
data or in damage to
product
memory
or internal circuitry.
To
prevent
an
accidental interruption
of
power, avoid
carrying
the
product
from one location
to
another while the
AC
adapter
is
connected.
(leaning:
When cleaning the camera body,
use
a blower
to
gently remove dust and lint, then
wipe
gently
with
a soft,
dry
cloth. After using the camera at
the
beach or seaside, wipe off any
sand
or
salt using a cloth lightly dampened in pure water and then
dry
the camera thoroughly.
The lens and mirror are easily damaged. Dust and
lint
should be gently removed
with
a blower.
When using
an
aerosol blower, keep
the
can vertical
to
prevent discharge
of
liquid.
To
remove
fingerprints and other stains from
the
lens, apply a small
amount
of
lens cleaner
to
a soft cloth
and
wipe
the
lens carefully.
See
the
Reference
Manual (on
CD)
for information on cleaning the low-pass filter.
