Operating Environment - BenQ C1020 User Manual

• Do not drop, knock, or shake the camera. A rude behavior of using the camera may
damage the internal electronic circuit board, deform the lens shape, or make the lens
unretractable.
• Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to clean the
camera.
• Finger grease may be left on the camera lens and will result in unclear images or
videos. To avoid this problem, be sure to clean the camera lens before taking pictures
or recording videos. You should also clean the camera lens on a regular basis.
• If the lens is dirty, use a lens brush or soft cloth to clean the lens.
• Do not touch the lens with your fingers.
• If a foreign substance or water gets in your camera, please turn the power off
immediately and disconnect the battery and the power adapter. Next, remove the
foreign substance or water and send it to the maintenance center.
• Whenever there is data in the internal memory or the external memory card, you
should make a backup copy to a computer or disc. So, you can have a backup
solution if data loss occurs.
• If the lens cannot retract into the camera, please replace the battery first (usually this
is because of a drained battery). Then the lens should retract automatically. If the
lens still cannot retract, please contact your dealer.
• Under no circumstances should you push the lens back manually as this may
damage the camera.
• All original accessories are designed only for use with this camera model you
purchased. Do not use these accessories to other camera models or cameras of other
brands to avoid unpredictable danger or damage.
• Before initial use of a memory card, always format the card first using the camera.
• Remember to slide the write-protect tab (if available) to the unlock position.
Otherwise, all data (if any) on the memory card is protected and the card cannot be
edited or formatted.

Operating environment

• Do not use or store your camera in the environments listed below:
• Direct sunlight
• Dusty places
• Next to an air conditioner, electric heater or other heat sources
• In a closed car that is in direct sunlight
• Unstable locations
• Do not use your camera outdoors when it is raining or snowing.
• Do not use your camera in or near water.
• The camera operating temperature is between 0 and 40 degrees Celsius. It is normal
for the operating time to be shortened when the temperature is low.
• The capacity of your camera battery will reduce each time it is charged/emptied.
Storage at too high or low temperatures will also result in a gradual capacity loss. As
a result, the operating time of your camera may be considerably reduced, even after a
full recharge of the battery.
• It is normal for the camera to become warm during operation, because the camera
casing can conduct heat.
