This unit contains precision electronic components. Do not use or store this unit in the following locations. - Areas exposed to severe changes in temperature and humidity. - Areas exposed to dust and dirt. - Areas exposed to direct sunlight or the inside of a vehicle in hot weather. - Environments where there is high magnetism or excessive vibration. - Areas with high explosives or highly flammable materials. Do not let the unit come into contact with dust, vinyl goods, or chemicals, such as insecticides, for an extended period of time. Sand can be particularly troublesome to cameras. - Do not let sand get inside the unit when using it on beaches, coastal dunes, or other areas where there is lots of sand. - Doing so may result in failure or may permanently render the unit unusable. Extremes in temperature may cause problems. - If the camera is transferred from a cold to a warm and humid environment, condensation can form on the delicate electronic circuitry. If this occurs, turn the camera off and wait for at least 1 hour until all moisture is dispersed. Moisture build up can also occur in the memory card. If this happens, turn off the camera and remove the memory card. Wait until the moisture has dispersed. Caution on Using the Lens - If the lens is subjected to direct sunlight, it could result in discoloration and deterioration of the image sensor. - Pay attention not to get fingerprints or foreign substances on the surface of the lens. If the digital camera is not used for a long period, an electric discharge can occur. It is a good idea to remove the batteries and the memory card if you do not intend using the camera for an extended period of time. 91 Important notes If the camera is exposed to an electronic interference, it will turn itself off to protect the memory card. Camera Maintenance - Use a soft brush (available from photo stores) to gently clean the lens and LCD assemblies. If this does not work, lens-cleaning paper with lens cleaning fluid can be used. Clean the camera body with a soft cloth. Do not allow this camera to come into contact with solvent materials such as benzol, insecticide, thinners etc. This may damage the body shell of the camera and also affect its performance. Rough handling can damage the LCD monitor. Take care to avoid damage and keep the camera in its protective carry case at all times when not in use. Do not attempt to disassemble or modify the camera. Under certain conditions, static electricity can cause the flash unit to fire. This is not harmful to the camera and is not a malfunction. When images are uploaded or downloaded, the data transfer may be affected by static electricity. In this case, disconnect and re-connect the USB cable before trying the transfer again. 92 Warning indicator There are several warnings that may appear on the LCD display Warning indicator Causes - Memory card error - Turn off the camera power and turn it on again - Insert the memory card again - Format the memory card (p.82) - There is insufficient memory capacity to take an image - Insert a new memory card CARD ERROR !
