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. As the performance of Ni-MH
batteries is less effected by temperature, their use is recommended when shooting in
cold environments.
• Remove the batteries when the camera is not in use for an extended period. Leaking
battery fluid may damage the battery-chamber.
• Occasionally, when using alkaline batteries, the battery-condition indicator will give a
false low-battery-power warning, even though there is enough power capacity.
Continue to use the camera; the low-battery indicator will disappear.
• If batteries have been exhausted when used in the camera, do not reload them even
if their change seems to recover over time. These batteries will interfere with normal
camera operation.
LCD MONITOR CARE
• Although the LCD monitor is manufactured using high precision technology, there
may occasionally be a lack of colour or bright points on the LCD monitor.
• Do not apply pressure to the surface of the LCD monitor; it may be permanently
damaged.
• In a cold environment, the LCD monitor may become temporarily dark. When the
camera warms up, the display will function normally.
• The LCD monitor may be slow to react in low temperatures or may turn dark in a hot
environment. When the camera reaches normal operating temperature, the display
will function normally.
• If fingerprints are on the LCD monitor surface, gently wipe with a soft, clean, dry
cloth .
