Technical Notes-Caring for the Camera • Do not store the camera with naphtha or camphor moth balls, close to equipment that produces strong magnetic fields, or in areas subject to extremes of temperature, for example near a space heater or in a closed vehicle on a hot day. • To prevent mold or mildew, take the camera out of storage at least once a month. Turn the camera on and release the shutter a few times before putting the camera away again. • Store the battery in a cool, dry place. Replace the terminal cover before putting the battery away. Notes on the monitor • The monitor may contain a few pixels that are always lit or that do not light. This is a characteristic common to all TFT LCD monitors and does not indicate a malfunction. Images recorded with the product will not be affected. • Images in the monitor may be difficult to see in a bright light. • Do not apply pressure to the monitor; this could cause damage or malfunction. Dust or lint on the monitor can be removed with a blower. Stains can be removed by rubbing the surface lightly with a soft cloth or chamois leather. • Should the monitor break, care should be taken to avoid injury due to broken glass and to prevent the liquid crystal from the monitor touching the skin or entering the eyes or mouth. • Replace the monitor cover when transporting the camera or leaving it unattended. Turn the product off before removing or disconnecting the power source Do not unplug the product or remove the battery while the product is on, or while images are being recorded or deleted. Forcibly cutting power to the product in these circumstances could result in loss of data or in damage to product memory or internal circuitry. To prevent an accidental interruption of power, avoid carrying the product from one location to another while the AC adapter is connected. Batteries • When you turn the device on, check the battery-level displayed in the control panel to determine whether the battery needs to be recharged or replaced. The battery needs to be recharged or replaced when the battery-level indicator is flashing. • Ready a spare battery and keep it fully charged when taking photographs on important occasions. Depending on your location, you may find it difficult to purchase replacement batteries on short notice. • On cold days, the capacity of batteries tends to decrease. Be sure the battery is fully charged before taking photographs outside in cold weather. Keep a spare battery in a warm place and exchange the two as necessary. Once warmed, a cold battery may recover some of its charge. • Should the battery terminals become dirty, wipe them off with a clean, dry cloth before use. • After removing the battery from the camera, be sure to replace the terminal cover. • Used batteries are a valuable resource. Please recycle used batteries in accord with local regulations. 197
