Memory cards
SD Memory Cards and MultiMediaCards are manufactured with precision electronic
components. The following may cause data loss or damage:
• Improper use of the card.
• Bending, dropping, or subjecting the card to impact.
• Heat, moisture, and direct sunlight.
• Static electrical discharge or electromagnetic fields near the card.
• Removing the card or interrupting the power supply while the camera or a computer is
accessing the card (reading, writing, reformatting, etc.).
• Touching the electrical contacts of the card with your fingers or metal objects.
• Using the card beyond its life. Purchasing a new card periodically may be necessary.
Minolta has no responsibility for any loss or damage to data. It is recommended that a
copy of the card data be made.
Batteries
• Battery performance decreases with temperature. In cold environments, we recom-
mend keeping spare batteries in a warm place, such as the inside of a coat. Batteries
can recover their power when they warm up.
• If batteries have been exhausted after use in the camera, do not reload them even if
their charge seems to recover over time. These batteries will interfere with normal cam-
era operation.
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 plas-
tic bag to prevent condensation from forming. Allow the camera to come to room tem-
perature before removing it from the bag.

LCD monitor care
• Although the LCD monitor is manufactured using high precision technology, there may
occasionally be a lack of color or bright points on the monitor.
• Do not apply pressure to the surface of the LCD monitor; it may be permanently dam-
aged.
• In cold temperatures, the LCD monitor may become temporarily dark. When the cam-
era 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.
Before important events and journeys
• Check the camera's operation; take test pictures and purchase spare batteries.
• Minolta has no responsibility for any damage or loss incurred by equipment malfunc-
tion.
