PRECAUTIONS FOR YOUR CAMERA Precautions when taking pictures • Do not drop the camera or allow it to hit a solid object. If the camera suffers a severe shock or impact, take it to a Pentax service center for inspection. • Be careful not to subject the camera to strong vibrations, shock or pressure. Use a cushion to protect the camera when carrying it in a motorcycle, car, boat, etc. • Condensation on the interior or the exterior of the camera may be extremely harmful to the camera mechanism as it may cause rust. Furthermore, if the camera is taken from warm temperature to a subfreezing one or vice versa, the formation of icelets may cause damage. In such a case, put the camera into a case or plastic bag so that any changes in temperature difference is minimized. Do not remove it from the bag until temperature has stabilized. • Regular size color prints may cut off what appears on the extreme edges of the film frame. Compose your picture with a margin of safety at the edges. Precautions for storage • Avoid leaving the camera for extended periods in places where temperature and humidity are high such as in a car. • Do not store the camera in a closet with mothballs or in a case where chemicals are handled. Store it in a place with good air circulation to prevent fungus growth. Precautions for proper care • Use a blower and lens brush to remove dust ac- cumulated on the lens or the viewfinder window. • Never use solvents such as paint thinner, alcohol or benzene to clean the camera. To clean the external camera surfaces, - but not glass surfaces; using a dry or silicone-treated cloth is recommended. 2
