● Store in a Well-Ventilated Area
To prev
ent mold or mildew, store the camera in a dry, well-ventilated area. Do not store the camera
with naphtha or camphor moth balls, next to equipment that produces strong electromagnetic
fields, or where it will be exposed to extremely high temperatures, for example near a heater or
in an enclosed vehicle on a hot day. Failure to observe these precautions could result in product
malfunction.
● Long-Term Storage
To prevent damage caused for example by leaking battery fluid, remove the battery if the product
will not be used for an extended period. Store the camera in a plastic bag containing a desiccant.
Do not, however, store the leather camera case in a plastic bag, as this may cause the material to
deteriorate. Store the battery in a cool, dry place. Note that desiccant gradually loses its capacity to
absorb moisture and should be replaced at regular intervals. To prevent mold or mildew, take the
camera out of storage at least once a month, insert the battery, and release the shutter a few times.
● Turn the Product Off Before Removing or Disconnecting the Power Source
Removing or disconnecting the power source while the camera is on could damage the product.
Particular care should be taken not to remove or disconnect the power source while pictures are
being recorded or deleted.
