• Should fluid from a battery accidentally get onto clothing or your skin, immediately rinse it off with clean tap water. Prolonged contact with battery fluid can cause skin irritation. ¦ Battery Life • Battery continuous operation times provided in this manual represent the approximate amount of time before the camera turns off due to low battery power when being powered by the special battery under normal temperature (23°C (73°F)). They do not guarantee that you will be able to achieve the indicated level of operation. Actual battery life is greatly affected by ambient temperature, battery storage conditions, the amount of time spent in storage, etc. • Leaving the camera on can run down battery and cause the low battery warning to appear. Turn off the camera whenever you are not using it. • The low battery warning indicates that the camera is about to turn off due to low battery power. Charge the battery as soon as possible. Leaving low or dead batteries in the camera can lead to battery leakage and data corruption. INTRODUCTION 30 ¦ Data Error Precautions • Your digital camera is manufactured using precision digital components. Any of the following creates the risk of corruption of data in camera memory. – Removing the battery or memory card from the camera while the camera is performing an operation – Removing the memory card from the camera while the operation lamp is flashing green after turning off the camera – Disconnecting the USB cable while a data communication operation is being performed – Using a battery that is low – Other abnormal operations Any of the above conditions can cause an error message to appear on the monitor screen (page 225). Perform the action indicated by the message that appears. ¦ Operating Environment • The operating temperature range of the camera is 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F). • Do not place the camera in any of the following locations. – In an area exposed to direct sunlight, or large amounts of moisture or dust – Near an air conditioner or in other areas subjected to extreme temperature or humidity – Inside of a motor vehicle on a hot day, or in an area subjected to strong vibration INTRODUCTION 31 ¦ Condensation • Sudden and extreme temperature changes, such as when the camera is moved from the outdoors on a cold winter day into a warm room, can cause water droplets called “condensation” to form on the interior and the exterior of the camera. Note that condensation can cause malfunction of the camera. To avoid condensation, place the camera into a plastic bag before subjecting it to sudden temperature change. Wait until the air in the bag has had enough time to become acclimated to the new temperature before removing the camera. After that, open the battery cover and leave it open for a few hours. ¦ Power Supply • Use only the special rechargeable lithium ion battery (NP-20) to power this camera. Use of any other type of battery is not supported. • The camera does not have a separate battery for the clock. The date and time settings of the camera are cleared about one day after power is cut off from the battery. If this happens, be sure to reconfigure these settings after power is restored (page 165). ¦ Lens • Never apply too much force when cleaning the surface of the lens. Doing so can scratch the lens surface and cause malfunction. • You may sometimes notice some distortion in certain types of images, such as a slight bend in lines that should be straight. This is due to the characteristics of lens, and does not indicate malfunction of the camera.
