About the Lens
• Do not direct the lens to the sun or strong
light sources. It may cause not only a
malfunction of the camera but irreversible
damage to your eye.
• Do not press the lens strongly.
• Leaving the camera with the lens facing
the sun may cause a malfunction. Be
careful when you put the camera outside
or near a window.

About Condensation (When the lens
is fogged up)
Condensation takes place when the
ambient temperature or humidity is
changed as follows:
Be careful of condensation since it causes
stains on the lens, fungus or malfunction.
• When the camera is brought inside from
the cold to a warm room.
• When the camera is moved from outside
to an air-conditioned car.
• When cool wind from an air conditioner or
other is directly blown onto the camera.
• In humid places
Put the camera into plastic bag until the
temperature of the camera is close to the
ambient temperature to avoid
condensation. In case of condensation,
turn the camera off and then leave it for
about 2 hours.
When the camera becomes close to the
ambient temperature, the fog disappears
naturally.

If you will not be using the camera for
a long time
• Store the battery in a cool and dry place
with a relatively stable temperature.
[Recommended temperature:
15
o
C to 25
o
C (59
o
F to 77
o
F),
Recommended humidity: 40% to 60%]
• Be sure to remove the battery and the
card from the camera.
• When the battery is left inserted in the
camera for a long time, discharge takes
place even if the camera is turned off. If
you leave the battery inserted for an
extended period of time, it will be
excessively discharged and it may
become unusable even after it is charged.
• To store the battery for a long period of
time, we recommend charging it once
every year and storing it again after you
completely use up the charged capacity.
• When you keep the camera in a closet or
a cabinet, we recommend storing it with
the desiccant (silica gel).
