About the camera’s backlight…

• The camera is equipped with a fluorescent light source to

provide the back lighting for its LCD.

• The normal service life of the backlight is approximately six

years, when the camera is used for about two hours a day.

• Should the LCD image appear abnormally dark, take the

camera to your dealer or an authorized CASIO service pro-
vider to have the light source replaced. Note that you will
be charged for this replacement.

• Under very cold conditions, the backlight may require more

time than normal to light, or reddish bands may appear in
the displayed image. These conditions do not indicate mal-
function, and normal operation should return at higher tem-
peratures.

Lens Precautions

• Fingerprints, dust, or any other soiling of the lens can inter-

fere with proper image recording. Never touch the lens with
your fingers. You can remove dust particles from the lens
surface by using a lens blower to blow them off. Next, wipe
the surface of the lens with a soft lens cloth.

Condensation

• When you bring the camera indoors on a cold day or other-

wise expose it to a sudden change of temperature, there is
the possibility that condensation can form on the exterior or
on interior components. Condensation can cause malfunc-
tion of the camera, so you should avoid exposing it to con-
ditions that might cause condensation.

• To keep condensation from forming, place the camera into

a plastic bag before moving it into a location that is much
warmer or colder than your current location. Leave it in the
plastic bag until the air inside the bag has a chance to
reach the same temperature as the new location. If con-
densation does form, remove the batteries from the cam-
era and leave the battery cover open for a few hours.
