Using the Battery When Cold

On cold days, the capacity of batteries tends to decrease. If an exhausted

battery is used at a low temperature, the camera may not turn on. Keep spare

batteries in a warm place and exchange as necessary. Once warmed, a cold

battery may recover some of its charge.

Recycling Used Batteries

Replace the battery when it no longer holds a charge. Used batteries are a

valuable resource. Please recycle used batteries in accordance with local

regulations.

Cleaning After Using the Camera

Use a blower to remove any dust or lint that adheres to the lens, monitor or

camera body. To remove fingerpr

ints or other stains that cannot be removed

with a blower, gently wipe the parts with a soft dry cloth. If you wipe with too

much pressure or with a rough cloth, it may damage the camera or cause a

malfunction.

Storage

If you do not intend to use the camera for an extended period, remove the

battery and avoid storing the camera in any of the following types of locations:

• Places that are poorly ventilated or subject to humidity of over 60%

• Place exposed to temperatures above 50°C (122°F) or below -10°C (14°F).

Place next to equipment that produces strong electromagnetic field, such as

television or radios.

To prevent mold or mildew, take the camera out of storage at least once a

month, and turn it on and release the shutter a few times before putting it away

again.
