Condensation

• When you bring the camera indoors on a cold day or other-

wise expose it to a sudden change of temperature, there is

the possibility that condensation can form on the exterior or

on interior components. Condensation can cause malfunc-

tion of the camera, so you should avoid exposing it to con-

ditions that might cause condensation.

• To keep condensation from forming, place the camera into

a plastic bag before moving it into a location that is much

warmer or colder than your current location. Leave it in the

plastic bag until the air inside the bag has a chance to

reach the same temperature as the new location. If con-

densation does form, remove the batteries from the cam-

era and leave the battery cover open for a few hours.

INTRODUCTION

• The camera is equipped with a fluorescent light source to

provide the back lighting for its LCD.

• The normal service life of the backlight is approximately six

years, when the camera is used for about two hours a day.

• Should the LCD image appear abnormally dark, take the

camera to your dealer or an authorized CASIO service pro-

vider to have the light source replaced. Note that you will

be charged for this replacement.

• Under very cold conditions, the backlight may require more

time than normal to light, or reddish bands may appear in

the displayed image. These conditions do not indicate mal-

function, and normal operation should return at higher tem-

peratures.

• Fingerprints, dust, or any other soiling of the lens can inter-

fere with proper image recording. Never touch the lens with

your fingers. You can remove dust particles from the lens

surface by using a lens blower to blow them off. Next, wipe

the surface of the lens with a soft lens cloth.
