Precautions
Do not use/store the camera in
the following places
• In an extremely hot, dry or humid
place
In places such as in a car parked in
the sun, the camera body may
become deformed and this may
cause a malfunction.
• Under direct sunlight or near a
heater
The camera body may become
discolored or deformed, and this
may cause a malfunction.
• In a location subject to rocking
vibration
• Near a strong magnetic field
• In sandy or dusty places
Be careful not to let sand or dust get
into the camera. This may cause the
camera to malfunction, and in some
cases this malfunction cannot be
repaired.
• Humid places
These may cause the growth of
mold on the lens.
On storing
Be sure to attach the front lens cap
or body cap when not using the
camera. When attaching the body
cap, remove all the dust from the
cap before placing it on the camera.
When you purchase the DT 18-
55mm F3.5-5.6 SAM II Lens Kit,
purchase the Rear Lens Cap ALC-
R55 also.
Care
The surface of the LCD screen has a
coating that may peel off if scratched.
Please note the following points for
handling and care.
• Grease or hand cream left on the
LCD screen by your hands may
dissolve the coating. If any grease
or cream gets on the LCD screen,
wipe it off immediately.
• Wiping forcefully with tissue paper
or other materials may damage the
coating.
• Before wiping dirt, dust the dirt or
sand off in advance using a blower,
etc.
• When wiping off dirt, wipe gently
with a soft cloth, such as a cloth for
cleaning glasses.
On operating temperatures
Your camera is designed for use in
temperatures between 0°C and 40°C
(32°F and 104°F). We do not
recommend shooting in extremely
cold or hot places that exceed this
range.
On moisture condensation
If the camera is moved directly from
a cold to a warm location, moisture
may condense inside or outside the
camera. This moisture condensation
may cause a malfunction of the
camera.
