CAUTION!
Hot Surfaces on Recording Media
During extended operation, high data rates and/or operation at high ambient temperatures,
the recording media in the camera can get hot to the touch and can cause pain or even
burns if held for too long directly after removal.
Do not handle the recording media for longer than three seconds and remove it quickly but
carefully.
Consider to wear protective gloves when removing the recording media or allow it to cool down
beforehand.
Do not put any labels or adhesive tape on the recording media (especially the side facing the
camera body). The recording media must have full contact to the thermal surface to ensure
proper heat conduction.
