 Avoid using or storing the camera in the following places:

• Places subject to humidity, dust and dirt
• Places subject to direct sunlight
• Places subject to high or low temperature
• Places filled with highly flammable gas
• Places near gasoline, benzene or paint thinner
• Places subject to strong vibrations

●

 Do not expose the camera to sand.

The camera is particularly sensitive to sand. If the camera comes into contact with sand, not only will the
camera become damaged, it will also no longer be repairable.
Pay special attention when using the camera at the beach or where sand or sand dust is likely to be
present.

 Notes On Condensation

Due to a sudden change in temperature, such as when you move the camera from a cold location to a
warm one, water droplets (condensation) may form on the inside of the camera or on the lens. When this
occurs, switch the camera OFF, and wait an hour before using the camera. Condensation may also form
on the SmartMedia™ card. If this happens, remove the SmartMedia™ card, wipe off any water droplets
and wait a short time before using it again.

 Carrying Out Maintenance on Your Camera

• To prevent the lens, surface of the status display or viewfinder from being scratched, blow off any dust

on these parts with a blower brush and lightly wipe with a soft dry cloth.

• Clean the body of the camera with a soft dry cloth. Do not use volatile liquids such as paint thinner,

benzene or insecticide, as these may react with the camera body and cause deformation or remove the
coating.
