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.
• Remove the batteries when the camera is not in use for an extended period. Leaking battery fluid
may damage the battery-chamber.
• If batteries have been exhausted when used in the camera, do not reload them even if their charge
seems to recover over time. These batteries will interfere with normal camera operation.
• When installing batteries, make sure the battery terminals are clean. Residue or dirt on the
terminals can sometimes cause a false low-battery warning. Always use a clean, dry cloth to clean
batteries.
LCD MONITOR CARE
• Although the LCD monitor is manufactured using high precision technology, there may occasionally
be a lack of color 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.
