If the liquid inside the LCD monitor leaks out, and you are faced with the following situations, please do as follows. If the liquid adheres to clothes or the skin, wash it away with soap immediately. If the liquid enters the eye, flush the affected eye with clean water immediately for 15 minutes, and seek medical assistance.
The camera will work within a temperature range between 0˚C/32˚F and +40˚C/104˚F and humidity less than 85% (no condensation). However, in cold temperatures below 0˚C, the power performance of the battery is reduced. Please carry a spare battery in these circumstances, and keep the batteries warm. Static electricity or magnetic fields may affect the operation of the camera. If such exposure occurs, please remove the battery from the camera and re-insert it, to reset the camera’s microprocessors.
For movie shooting, an SD card may not be available depending on the bit rate. For details on compatible media, refer to "BIT RATE AND COMPATIBLE MEDIA" (P.76).
