Precautions for Your Camera
Your Pentax camera is a high-precision mecha-
nism. Handle it with great care.
Precautions when taking pictures
•
Do not use the camera where it may come in contact
with rain, water, or any other liquid, because the cam-
era is not weather, water, or liquid resistant. Should
the camera get wet from rain, splashing water, or any
other liquid wipe it off immediately with a dry soft
cloth.
•
Do not drop the camera or allow it to hit solid objects.
lf the camera suffers a shock or impact, take it to a
Pentax service center for inspection.
•
Be careful not to subject the camera to strong vibra-
tions, shock or pressure. Use a cushion to protect the
camera when carrying it in a motorcycle, car, boat,
etc.
•
Condensation on the interior or exterior of the cam-
era may be extremely harmful to the camera mecha-
nism as it may cause rust. Furthermore, if the camera
is taken from warm temperature to a subfreezing one
or vice versa, the formation of ice crystals may cause
damage. In such a case, put the camera into a case
or plastic bag so that temperature difference is mini-
mized. Do not remove it from the bag until tempera-
ture has stabilized.
•
Regular size color prints may cut off what appears on
the extreme edges of the film frame. Compose your
picture with a margin of safety at the edges.
Precautions for storage
•
Avoid leaving the camera for extended periods in
places where the humidity and temperature are very
high, such as in a car.
•
Do not store the camera in a closet with mothballs or
in an areas where chemicals are handled. Store it in
a place with good dry air circulation to prevent the
growth of fungus.
Precautions for proper care
•
Never touch the shutter curtain or mirror with your
finger or any other object.
•
Use a blower and lens brush to remove dust accu-
mulated on the lens or viewfinder.
•
Never use solvents such as paint thinner, alcohol or
benzene to clean the camera.
•
Electrical problems may often be caused by water,
dirt or dust at points of electrical contact. Also check
for battery leakage, traces of dirt or grease, or corro-
sion due to salinity or gas. If you cannot correct the
problems, have your camera inspected at a Pentax
service center. Repairs of this nature are not covered
under the terms of the warranty and charges may be
assessed.
