Olympus TG-6 Instruction Manual page 152

Using the wireless LAN function
• Turn off the camera in hospitals and other locations where medical equipment is present.
The radio waves from the camera may adversely affect medical equipment, causing a malfunction
that results in an accident.
• Turn off the camera when onboard aircraft.
Using wireless devices onboard may hinder safe operation of the aircraft.
Precautions when using the wireless LAN function
If using the wireless LAN function in a country outside the region where the camera was purchased,
there is a risk that the camera will not conform to the wireless communication regulations of that
country. Olympus will not be held responsible for any failure to meet such regulations.
GPS function, electronic compass
• In a location not open to the sky (inside, underground, underwater, in a forest, near high buildings)
or in a location subject to strong magnetic or electric fi elds (near new high-voltage power lines,
magnets or electrical goods, 1.5GHz mobile telephones), it may not be possible to determine
measurements or generate errors.
• The altitude displayed on the measurement information screen or picture playback screen etc. is
displayed/recorded based on information from pressure sensors built into camera body. Be careful
since the displayed altitude is not based on GPS position measurements.
• Electronic compass errors may be caused by the effects of strong magnetic or electrical fi elds
(such as televisions, microwaves, large motors, radio towers and high-voltage lines). To restore the
electronic compass function, hold the camera fi rmly and move in a fi gure of 8 while turning your
wrist over.
• Since the GPS function and electronic compass function are not required to be accurate, there is no
guarantee that the measured values (latitude, longitude, compass direction etc.) are accurate.
Monitor
• Do not push the monitor forcibly; otherwise the image may become vague, resulting in a playback
mode failure or damage to the monitor.
• A strip of light may appear on the top/bottom of the monitor, but this is not a malfunction.
• When a subject is viewed diagonally in the camera, the edges may appear zigzagged on the
monitor. This is not a malfunction; it will be less noticeable in playback mode.
• In places subject to low temperatures, the monitor may take a long time to turn on or its color
11
may change temporarily. When using the camera in extremely cold places, it is a good idea
to occasionally place it in a warm place. The monitor exhibiting poor performance due to low
temperatures will recover in normal temperatures.
• The monitor of this product is manufactured with high-quality accuracy, however, there may be
a stuck or dead pixel on the monitor. These pixels do not have any infl uence on the image to be
saved. Because of the characteristics, the unevenness of the color or brightness may also be found
depending on the angle, but this is due to the structure of the monitor. This is not a malfunction.
