About the monitor/Viewfinder
•
Do not press the monitor with excessive force. Uneven colors may appear on it and it may
malfunction.
•
If the camera is cold when you turn it on, the picture on the monitor/Viewfinder will be slightly darker
than usual at first. However, the picture will return to normal brightness when the internal
temperature of the camera increases.
Extremely high precision technology is employed to produce the monitor/viewfinder screen.
However there may be some dark or bright spots (red, blue or green) on the screen. This is
not a malfunction. The monitor/viewfinder screen has more than 99.99% effective pixels
with a mere 0.01% of the pixels inactive or always lit. The spots will not be recorded on
pictures on the internal memory or a card.
About the Lens
•
Do not press the lens with excessive force.
•
Do not leave the camera with the lens facing the sun as rays of light from the sun may cause it to
malfunction. Also, be careful when placing the camera outside or near a window.
•
When there is dirt (water, oil, and fingerprints, etc.) on the surface of the lens, the picture may be
affected. Lightly wipe the surface of the lens with a soft, dry cloth before and after taking pictures.
•
Retract the lens when carrying the camera.
Battery
The battery is a rechargeable lithium ion unit. Its ability to generate power comes from
the chemical reaction that takes place inside it. This reaction is susceptible to the
surrounding temperature and humidity. If the temperature is too high or too low, the
operating time of the battery will become shorter.
Always remove the battery after use.
•
Place the removed battery in a plastic bag, and store or carry away from metallic objects (clips, etc.).
If you drop the battery accidentally, check to see if its body and the terminals are
damaged.
•
Inserting a damaged battery in the camera will damage the camera.
Take along charged spare batteries when going on longer excursions.
•
Be aware that the operating time of the battery becomes shorter in low temperature conditions such
as at a ski resort.
•
When you travel, do not forget to take along the battery charger (supplied) so that you can charge
the battery in the country that you are traveling in.
Dispose of unusable battery.
•
The battery has a limited life.
•
Do not throw the battery into fire because it may cause an explosion.
Do not allow battery terminals to come into contact with metal objects (such as
necklaces, hairpins etc.).
•
This can cause short circuiting or heat generation and you may be badly burned if you touch such a
battery.
