which may damage the lens, LCD monitor, or camera

body. This may also cause the camera to malfunction or

•Pushing with excessive force on the lens or LCD monitor

•When carrying or using the playback feature, ensure that

the lens is in the stored position, with lens cap on.

The camera is not dust resistant, splash resistant, or

waterproof.

Avoid using the camera in places with excessive dust

or sand, or where water can come into contact with the

camera.

Avoid using the camera under the following conditions,

which present a risk that sand, water, or foreign material

may enter the camera through the lens or openings around

buttons. Be especially careful, because these conditions

may damage the camera and such damage may not be

repairable.

Condensation (When the lens or the LCD monitor is fogged up)

Condensation may occur when the camera is exposed to

sudden changes of temperature or humidity. Avoid these

conditions, which may make the lens or LCD monitor dirty,

cause mold, or damage the camera.

If condensation does occur, turn off the camera and wait

about two hours before using it. Once the camera adjusts

to the surrounding temperature, the fogging will clear

naturally.
