For safe use of this product
•
This camera contains precision electronic parts. Avoid using or leaving the camera for long
periods of time in the following places as this could result in failure or malfunction.
- Places of high temperature and high humidity or where the temperature and humidity
fluctuate greatly, such as in direct sunlight, on the beach in summer, in a car with the
windows closed, or next to air conditioning equipment or a humidifier
- Places where there is a lot of sand, dust or dirt
- Near fire
- Near water
- Places that are subject to considerable vibration
•
Avoid dropping or hitting the camera or subjecting it to severe vibration or impact.
•
If you hold the cradle upside down with the camera set, the camera may fall out of the cradle.
•
Do not pick up by the camera only when it is set on the cradle.
•
Keep the camera away from things susceptible to damage from magnetism such as credit
cards, magnetic commuter passes, and floppy disks. The data of those things could be
corrupted and no longer usable.
•
Do not take pictures of, or leave the camera with the lens aimed directly at, the sun. Doing so
may cause color-fade or burn-in on the CCD.
•
If the camera is subjected to a sudden temperature change, for example by bringing it from a
cold place into a warm room, condensation may form on the inside. Place the camera in a
plastic bag until the temperature difference has subsided.
•
If the camera is left unused for a long period of time, mold may form, causing failure or
malfunction. We recommend that you check that the camera is still working properly before
using it.
