LCD Display and Backlight
Do not point the viewfinder towards strong light like the sun, as this may
damage interior of the viewfinder.
The backlight built into the monitor and control panel has a limited service
life. When the monitor gets dark or flickers, consult your nearest Olympus
dealer.
In places subject to low temperatures, the backlight may take a long time to
turn on or its color may change temporarily. When using the camera in
extremely cold places, it is a good idea to occasionally place it in a warm
place. A backlight exhibiting poor performance due to low temperatures will
recover in normal temperatures.
Do not push the monitor forcibly; otherwise the image may become vague,
resulting in a Display mode failure or damage to the monitor.
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 Display mode.
A strip of light may appear on the top/bottom of the monitor, but this is not a
malfunction.
The LCD display is made with high-precision technology. However,
black spots or bright spots of light may appear constantly on the LCD
display. Due to its characteristics or the angle at which you are viewing
the monitor, the spot may not be uniform in color and brightness. This
is not a malfunction.
