• On cold days, the capacity of batteries tends to decrease. Be sure the battery
is fully charged before taking pictures outside in cold weather. Keep a spare
batter y in a warm place and exchange the two as necessar y. Once warmed, a
cold batter y may recover some of its charge.
• Should the batter y terminals become dir ty, wipe them off with a clean, dry
cloth before use.
Memory cards
• Turn the power off before inser ting or removing memor y cards. Inserting or
removing cards with the power on could render them unusable.
• Inser t memory cards as shown in the illustration at right.
Inser ting cards upside down or backwards could damage
the camera or the card.
Storage
• To prevent mold or mildew, store the camera in a dr y, well-ventilated area. If
you will not be using the product for a long period of time , remove the bat-
tery to prevent leakage and store the camera in a plastic bag containing a
desiccant. Do not, however, store the camera case in a plastic bag, as this may
cause the material to deterior ate. Note that desiccant gradually loses its
capacity to absorb moisture and should be replaced at regular intervals.
• Do not store the camera with naphtha or camphor moth balls, close to equip-
ment that produces strong magnetic fields, or in areas subject to extremes of
temperature, for example near a space heater or in a closed vehicle on a hot
day.
• To prevent mold or mildew, take the camera out of storage at least once a
month. Turn the camera on and release the shutter a few times before putting
the camera away again.
•Store the batter y in a cool, dr y place.
