Precautions
Camera Body Temperature
If your camera is used for prolonged periods, the camera body may
become warm. Please be aware of this and take care when operating
the camera for an extended period.
About the LCD monitor
The LCD monitor is produced with extremely high-precision
manufacturing techniques. With more than 99.99% of the pixels
operating to specifications, less than 0.01% of the pixels may
occasionally misfire or appear as black, red or green dots. This has no
effect on the recorded image and does not constitute a malfunction.
Notice: Please ensure that you read and follow the handling and
safety precautions on pages 5 to 9 of this guide before
attempting to use the camera.
Video Format
Please set the camera’s video signal format to the one used in your
region before using it with a TV monitor (p. 82).
Language Setting
Please see page 83 to change the language setting.
Charging the Date/Time Battery
• The camera has a built-in rechargeable lithium battery that
maintains the date, time and other camera settings. This battery
recharges when the main battery pack is inserted into the
camera. When you first purchase the camera, place a charged
battery pack in it or use the AC adapter kit (sold separately) for
at least 4 hours to charge the date/time battery. It will charge
even when the camera power is set to Off.
• If the Set Date/Time menu appears when the camera power is
turned on, it means that the date/time battery charge is
depleted. Recharge it as described above.

Preventing Malfunctions
Avoid Strong Magnetic Fields
Never place the camera in close proximity to electric motors or other
equipment generating strong electromagnetic fields. Exposure to
strong magnetic fields may cause malfunctions or corrupt image data.
Avoid Condensation Related Problems
Moving the equipment rapidly between hot and cold temperatures
may cause condensation (water droplets) to form on its external and
internal surfaces. You can avoid this by placing the equipment in an
airtight, resealable plastic bag and letting it adjust to temperature
changes slowly before removing it from the bag.
If Condensation Forms Inside the Camera
Stop using the camera immediately if you detect condensation.
Continued use may damage the equipment. Remove the CF card and
battery or power cord (if connected) from the camera and wait until
the moisture evaporates completely before resuming use.
Extended Storage
When not using the camera for extended periods of time, remove the
battery pack and store the equipment in a safe place. Storing the camera
for extended periods with a battery pack installed will run down the
battery pack and may damage the camera. Please note, however, that
the date, time and other camera settings may reset to the default
settings if the battery pack has been removed for more than three
weeks. Follow the instructions in this guide to reset the desired settings.

Handling Precautions
• Do not rapidly overturn or wave the battery charger around when the
battery pack is in it. There is a danger of the battery pack flying out.
• At low temperatures, the battery pack performance may be reduced
and the low battery icon may appear earlier than usual. Under these
conditions, resuscitate the battery pack by warming it in a pocket
immediately before use. However, ensure that there are no metallic
items in the pocket that could cause the battery pack to short circuit,
such as key holders, etc.
• Do not place anything, such as tablecloths, carpets, bedding or
cushions, on top of the battery charger while it is charging. Heat will
build up and could result in a fire.
• Do not charge batteries other than Battery Pack NB-1L in this charger.
• The battery pack continues to discharge a minimal portion of its power
while installed in the camera, even with the camera power off or
inserted into the battery charger. This will shorten battery life. To
conserve the battery pack, store it in its case in a cool, dry place.
Recharge it fully before using it again.
• If the performance of the battery pack diminishes substantially even
when it is fully charged, the battery pack should be replaced.
