• Do not leave the camera in contact with rubber

or vinyl for a long time.

x On operating temperatures

Your camera is designed for use between the

temperatures of 0°C and 40°C (32°F and 104°F).

Shooting in extremely cold or hot places that

exceed this range is not recommended.

x On moisture condensation

If the camera is brought directly from a cold to a

warm location, moisture may condense inside or

outside the camera. This moisture condensation

may cause a malfunction of the camera.

Moisture condensation occurs easily

when:

• The camera is brought from a cold location such

as a ski slope into a warmly heated room

• The camera is taken from an air-conditioned

room or car interior to the hot outdoors, etc.

How to prevent moisture condensation

When bringing the camera from a cold place to a

warm place, seal the camera in a plastic bag and

allow it to adapt to conditions at the new location

over about an hour.

If moisture condensation occurs

Turn off the camera and wait about an hour for the

moisture to evaporate. Note that if you attempt to

shoot with moisture remaining inside the lens, you

will be unable to record clear images.

x On the internal rechargeable

battery

This camera has an internal rechargeable battery

for maintaining the date and time and other

settings regardless of whether the power is on or

off.

This rechargeable battery is continually charged

as long as you are using the camera. However, if

you use the camera for only short periods, it

discharges gradually, and if you do not use the

camera at all for about one month it becomes

completely discharged. In this case, be sure to

charge this rechargeable battery before using the

camera.

However, even if this rechargeable battery is not

charged, you can still use the camera as long as

you do not record the date and time.

Charging method

Connect the camera to a wall outlet (wall socket)

using the AC Adaptor, or install a charged battery

pack, and leave the camera for 24 hours or more

with the power off.
