Handling Precautions
Lithium Batteries
Your camera will not start to function until you insert two CR2 lithium
batteries. Be sure to check the batteries' power in the following situations:
(1) After replacing the batteries
(2) When the camera has not been used for a long period
(3) If the shutter release does not operate properly
(4) When shooting in cold conditions
(5) When taking particularly important pictures
* Always wipe the battery contacts free of dirt or fingerprints before
inserting the batteries, or you risk poor contact or corrosion.
* Your camera's batteries have excellent cold-weather characteristics, but
their capacity is nevertheless reduced at temperatures near or below
0 °C (32 °F). When using your camera in cold locations, always carry a
spare set of batteries, and keep the camera in a warm place such as a
pocket.
Low Battery Power
When the low battery indicator (=a flashes in the LCD panel, the camera
will still take pictures at the proper exposure as long as the shutter release
operates. However, because battery capacity is reduced, the automatic
winding and rewinding functions may not operate. Replace the batteries
with a fresh set.
Film Precautions
Avoid exposing the film to the following conditions, which can affect the
film or cartridge:
(1) Near strong magnetic fields, such as motors or transformers
(2) In hot or humid locations
