CARE AND STORAGE

APPENDIX
Operating Temperature and Conditions
• This camera is designed for use from -20° to 50°C (4 to 122 °F).
• Never leave your camera where it may be subjected to extreme
temperatures such as in the glove compartment of a car.
• The data panel response time will be slow at cold temperatures.
The display will temporarily darken at high temperatures, but will
be restored when the temperature normalizes.
• This camera is not waterproof or splashproof. When using the
camera in the rain, protect the camera and lens.
• Never subject the camera to extreme humidity.
• To prevent condensation from forming, place the camera in a
sealed plastic bag when bringing it from a cold environment to a
warm one. Allow it to come to room temperature before removing it
from the bag.
• The low-battery symbol may appear even with fresh batteries
depending on the storage conditions. To restore camera power,
turn the camera off and on several times.
• Battery capacity decreases at colder temperatures. Keep your
camera and spare batteries warm when shooting in cold weather.
Batteries will regain some of their capacity when warmed to nor-
mal operating temperature.
Before Important Events
• Check the camera's operation carefully, or take test photographs.
• Minolta is not responsible for any loss that may occur due to an
equipment malfunction.
