PRECAUTIONS FOR YOUR CAMERA Precautions when taking pictures • Do not allow the camera to get wet. Should the camera get wet wipe it off immediately with a dry soft cloth. • 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. Cushion the camera during transportation. • Condensation on the interior or the exterior of the camera may be harmful to the camera mechanism. When taking the camera from a warm temperature to a subfreezing one or vice versa, 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 the 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. 2 Precautions for storage • Avoid leaving the camera for extended periods in places where temperature and humidity are high, such as in a car. • Store the camera in a cool, dry place with good air circulation that is free of dirt, dust, or chemicals. Precautions for proper care • Use a blower and lens brush to remove dust accumulated on the lens or the viewfinder window. • To clean the external camera surfaces - but not glass surfaces - use a dry or silicone-treated cloth. • Never use solvents such as paint thinner, alcohol or benzene to clean the camera.
