 Places subject to humidity, dust and dirt

 Places subject to direct sunlight

 Places subject to high or low temperature

 Places filled with highly flammable gas

 Places near gasoline, benzene or paint thinner

 Places subject to strong vibrations

The PDR-4300 is particularly sensitive to sand and dust. If the camera comes into contact with sand or dust,

not only will the camera become damaged, it will also no longer be repairable.

Pay special attention when using the camera at the beach or where sand or dust is likely to be present.

Due to a sudden change in temperature, such as when you move the camera from a cold location to a

warm one, water droplets (condensation) may form on the inside of the camera or on the lens. When this

occurs, switch the camera OFF, and wait an hour before using the camera. Condensation may also form on

the SD Memory Card. If this happens, remove the SD Memory Card, wipe off any condensation and wait a

short time before using it again.
