LCD monitor care
• The LCD monitor is manufactured using high-precision technology and more than
99.99% of the pixels operate properly. Less than 0.01% of the monitor pixels are
displayed as color or bright points; this is not monitor defect and does not affect the
recorded image.
• Do not apply pressure to the surface of the LCD monitor; it may be permanently
damaged.
• In cold temperatures, the LCD monitor may become temporarily dark. When the
camera warms up, the display will function normally.
• If fingerprints are on the LCD monitor, gently wipe with a soft, clean, dry cloth.
Batteries
• Battery performance decreases with temperature. In cold environments, we
recommend keeping spare batteries in a warm place, such as the inside of a coat.
Batteries can recover their power when they warm up.
• In cold environments, the use of Ni-MH batteries is recommended over alkaline
batteries for better performance.
• If batteries have been exhausted when used in the camera, do not reload them even if
their charge seems to recover over time. These batteries will interfere with normal
camera operation.
• A special built-in battery supplies power to the clock and memory when the camera
battery is exhausted or removed. If the camera resets each time the battery is
replaced, the built-in battery is exhausted. It must be replaced at a Konica Minolta
service facility.
Operating temperatures and conditions
• This camera has been designed for use in temperatures from 0°C to 40°C (32°F to
104°F).
• Never leave the camera exposed to extreme high temperatures, such as in a car
parked in the sun, or to extreme humidity.
• When taking the camera from a cold to a warm environment, place it in a sealed plastic
bag to prevent condensation from forming. Allow the camera to come to room
temperature before removing it from the bag.
