ª Condensation
When condensation has taken
place:
Set the power switch to [OFF] and
leave the digital camera in this
condition for about 1 hour. When
the camera becomes close to the
ambient temperature, the fog
disappears naturally.
ª Cautions for Storage
Before storing the digital camera, take
the card out and detach the batteries.
Store all the components in a dry place
with a relatively stable temperature.
(Recommended temperature:
59 oF to 77 oF (15oC to 25oC),
Recommended humidity: 40 to 60%)
Digital camera
• Wrap it with a soft cloth to prevent dust
from getting into the camera.
• Do not leave the camera in places that
expose it to high temperature.
Batteries
• Do not leave the camera and the
battery in places where the
temperature is too high, such as inside
the car during the summer.
• Extremely high or low temperatures
will shorten the life of batteries.
• If the batteries are kept in smoky or
dusty places, the terminals may rust
and cause malfunctions.
• Do not allow the battery terminals to
come in contact with metal objects
(such as necklaces, hairpins, etc.).
This can result in a short circuit or heat
generation, and if you touch the
battery in this condition, you may be
badly burned.
Others
Card
• When the card is being read, do not
remove the card, turn off the power, or
subject it to vibration or impact.
• Do not leave the card in places where
there is high temperature or direct
sunlight, or where electromagnetic
waves or static electricity are easily
generated.
• Do not bend or drop the card. The
card or the recorded content may be
damaged.
• After use, be sure to remove the card
from the digital camera.
• Do not touch the terminals on the back
of the card with your fingers. Do not
allow dirt, dust or water to enter it.
