PRECAUTIONS FOR YOUR CAMERA
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 a solid object.
If the camera suffers a severe 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 the exterior of the cam-
era may be extremely harmful to the camera mecha-
nism as it may cause rust and/or corrosion.
Furthermore, if the camera is taken from warm tem-
perature to a subfreezing one or vice versa, the forma-
tion of icelets may cause damage. In such a case, put
the camera into a case or plastic bag so that any
change in temperature difference is minimized. Do not
remove it from the bag until temperature has stabilized.
Precautions for storage
• Avoid leaving the camera for extended periods in
places where temperature and humidity are high such
as in a car.
• Do not store the camera in a closet with mothballs or in
a case where chemicals are handled. Store it in a place
with good air circulation to prevent fungus growth.
Precautions for proper care
• Use a blower and lens brush to remove dust accumu-
lated on the lens or the viewfinder window.
• Never use solvents such as paint thinner, alcohol or
benzene to clean the camera. To clean the external
camera surfaces, - but not glass surfaces; using a dry
or silicone-treated cloth is recommended.
Other precautions
• The temperature range at which this camera functions
properly is 50˚ to -10˚C (122˚F to 14˚F).
