26 Technical Notes
En_01
Observe the precautions described below in addition to the warnings in “For Your
Safety” (Aviii–xi) when using or storing the device.
The Camera
Do Not Apply Strong Impact to the Camera
The product may malfunction if subjected to strong shock or vibration. In addition, do not
touch or apply force to the lens.
Keep Dry
The device will be damaged if immersed in water or subjected to high humidity.
Avoid Sudden Changes in Temperature
Sudden changes in temperature, such as when entering or leaving a heated building on a
cold day, can cause condensation to form inside the device. To prevent condensation, place
the device in a carrying case or a plastic bag before exposing it to sudden changes in
temperature.
Keep Away from Strong Magnetic Fields
Do not use or store this device in the vicinity of equipment that generates strong
electromagnetic radiation or magnetic fields. Doing so could result in loss of data or camera
malfunction.
Do Not Point the Lens at Strong Light Sources for Extended Periods
Avoid pointing the lens at the sun or other strong light sources for extended periods when
using or storing the camera. Intense light may cause the image sensor to deteriorate or
produce a white blur effect in photographs.
Turn the Product Off Before Removing or Disconnecting the Power Source or
Memory Card
Do not remove the batteries while the product is on, or while images are being saved or
deleted. Forcibly cutting power in these circumstances could result in loss of data or in
damage to the memory card or internal circuitry.
Notes About the Monitor
•Monitors (including electronic viewfinders) are constructed with extremely high precision;
at least 99.99% of pixels are effective, with no more than 0.01% being missing or defective.
Hence while these displays may contain pixels that are always lit (white, red, blue, or
green) or always off (black), this is not a malfunction and has no effect on images recorded
with the device.
•Images in the monitor may be difficult to see under bright lighting.
•Do not apply pressure to the monitor, as this could cause damage or malfunction. Should
the monitor break, care should be taken to avoid injury caused by broken glass and to
prevent the liquid crystal from the display touching the skin or entering the eyes or
mouth.

Batteries
Precautions for Use
•Note that the batteries may become hot after use.
•Do not use batteries beyond their recommended expiration date.
•Do not turn the camera on and off repeatedly if discharged batteries are inserted in the
camera.
Carrying Spare Batteries
We recommend carrying spare batteries depending on where you are shooting. It may be
difficult to purchase batteries in certain areas.
Charging Batteries
If using optional rechargeable batteries, charge the batteries before taking pictures. Batteries
are not fully charged at the time of purchase.
Be sure to read and follow the warnings noted in the operating instructions included with
the battery charger.
Charging Rechargeable Batteries
•Do not mix batteries with different amounts of charge remaining, or batteries of a
different make or model.
•When using EN-MH2 batteries with this camera, charge four batteries at a time using MH-73
Battery Charger. Use only MH-73 Battery Charger to charge EN-MH2 batteries.
•When using MH-73 Battery Charger, only charge EN-MH2 batteries.
•EN-MH1 Rechargeable Ni-MH batteries cannot be used.
Notes About Rechargeable Ni-MH Batteries
•If you repeatedly charge rechargeable Ni-MH batteries while they still have some charge
remaining, the message Battery exhausted. may be displayed prematurely when using
the batteries. This is due to the “memory effect,” in which the amount of charge the
batteries can hold decreases temporarily. Use the batteries until there is no charge
remaining and they will return to their normal behavior.
•Rechargeable Ni-MH batteries discharge even when not being used. We recommend
charging the batteries just before using them.
Using the Batteries When Cold
On cold days, the capacity of batteries tends to decrease. If exhausted batteries are used at a
low temperature, the camera may not turn on. Keep spare batteries in a warm place and
exchange as necessary. Once warmed, cold batteries may recover some of their charge.
Battery Terminals
Dirt on the battery terminals may prevent the camera from functioning. Should the battery
terminals become dirty, wipe them off with a clean, dry cloth before use.
Remaining Battery Charge
If you insert discharged batteries into the camera, the camera may indicate that the batteries
have adequate charge remaining. This is a characteristic of batteries.

Cleaning
Do not use alcohol, thinner, or other volatile chemicals.
Storage
Remove the batteries if the camera will not be used for an extended period. To
prevent mold or mildew, take the camera out of storage at least once a month.
Turn the camera on and release the shutter a few times before putting the camera
away again. Do not store the camera in any of the following locations:
•Places that are poorly ventilated or subject to humidity of over 60%
•Exposed to temperatures above 50°C (122°F) or below –10°C (14°F)
•Next to equipment that produces strong electromagnetic fields, such as televisions
or radios
Cleaning and Storage
Lens
Avoid touching glass parts with your fingers. Remove dust or lint with a
blower (typically a small device with a rubber bulb attached to one end that
is pumped to produce a stream of air out the other end). To remove
fingerprints or other stains that cannot be removed with a blower, wipe the
lens with a soft cloth, using a spiral motion that starts at the center of the
lens and working toward the edges. If this fails, clean the lens using a cloth
lightly dampened with commercial lens cleaner.
Monitor Remove dust or lint with a blower. To remove fingerprints and other stains,
clean the monitor with a soft, dry cloth, being careful not to apply pressure.
Body
Use a blower to remove dust, dirt, or sand, then wipe gently with a soft, dry
cloth. After using the camera at the beach or other sandy or dusty
environment, wipe off any sand, dust, or salt with a dry cloth lightly
dampened with fresh water and dry thoroughly. Note that foreign matter
inside the camera could cause damage not covered by the warranty.
