Care to be Taken During Handling I Before Using Your Camera • When the camera has not been used for a long time, confirm that it is still working properly, particularly prior to taking important pictures (such as at a wedding or when traveling). Recorded data cannot be guaranteed if recording, playback or transferring your data to a computer, etc. is not possible due to a malfunction of your camera or recording media (SD Memory Card), etc. About the Battery and Charger • Storing the battery fully charged may decrease the battery performance. Avoid storing in high temperatures. • If the battery is left inserted and the camera is not used for a long time, the battery will over-discharge and shorten the battery's usage span. • Charging the battery a day before use or on the day of use is recommended. • The AC plug cord provided with this camera is developed exclusively for the battery charger D-BC90. Do not use it with other devices. Precautions on Carrying and Using Your Camera • Do not subject the camera to high temperatures or high humidity. Do not leave the camera in a vehicle, as the temperature can get very high. • Do not subject the camera to strong vibrations, shocks, or pressure. Use a cushion to protect the camera from vibrations of motorcycles, automobiles, or ships. • The temperature range for camera use is -10°C to 40°C (14°F to 104°F). • The monitor may appear black at high temperatures, but will return to normal at normal temperatures. • The monitor may respond more slowly at low temperatures. This is due to liquid crystal properties, and is not a malfunction. • Sudden temperature changes will cause condensation on the inside and outside of the camera. Place the camera in your bag or a plastic bag, and remove it after temperature of the camera and surroundings are equalized. • Avoid contact with garbage, mud, sand, dust, water, toxic gases, or salts. These could cause the camera to breakdown. Wipe the camera to dry off any rain or water drops. • Please do not press forcefully on the monitor. This could cause it to break or malfunction. • Be careful not to overtighten the tripod screw when using a tripod. 3
