before using the camera.
•Do not drop the camera or subject it to physical
shock.

of ethanol and wipe it gently. If the camera will
not be used for an extended period of time, put
on the lens cap to protect the sensor from dirt.
•Do not aim the camera lens at the strong light
such as sun or incandescent lamp. The strong
light can cause fatal damage to the camera.
•The sensor may be burned out by a laser beam,
so when any laser equipment is being used,
make sure that the surface of the sensor is not
exposed to the laser beam.
•Do not place the camera in extremely hot or cold
temperatures, dusty or damp environment, and
do not expose it to high electromagnetic
radiation.
