∫Care for the camera
•Do not shake or cause impact on the
camera. The camera may not be
operated normally or recording of pictures
may be disabled, or the lens may be
damaged.
• Sand or dust may cause a malfunction
of the camera. When you use the
camera on a beach etc., take care so
that sand or dust does not get into the
camera.
• When you use the camera on a rainy day
or on a beach, take care so that seawater
does not get into the camera.
• If seawater splashes onto the camera,
wet a soft cloth with tap water, wring it
well, and use it to wipe the camera
body carefully. Then, wipe it again with
a dry cloth.
∫About the LCD monitor
• Do not press the LCD monitor strongly.
It may cause uneven colors on the LCD
monitor or a malfunction of the LCD
monitor.
• In a place with drastic temperature
changes, condensation may form on the
LCD monitor. Wipe it with a soft, dry cloth.
• If the camera is extremely cold when you
turn the camera on, the image on the
LCD monitor is slightly darker than usual
at first. However, as the internal
temperature increases, it goes back to the
normal brightness.
∫About the Lens
• Do not direct the lens to the sun or strong
light sources. It may cause not only a
malfunction of the camera but irreversible
damage to your eye.
• Do not press the lens strongly.
• Leaving the camera with the lens facing
the sun may cause a malfunction. Be
careful when you put the camera outside
or near a window.
∫About Condensation
Condensation takes place when the
ambient temperature or humidity is
changed as follows:
Be careful of the condensation since it
causes stains on the lens, fungus or
malfunction. (P94)
• When the camera is brought inside from
the cold to a warm room.
• When the camera is moved from outside
of a car to an air-conditioned car.
• When cool wind from an air conditioner or
other is directly blown onto the camera.
• In humid places
∫If you will not be using the camera for
a long time
• Store the battery in a cool and dry place
with a relatively stable temperature.
(Recommended temperature:
15oC–25oC, Recommended humidity:
40% – 60%)
• Be sure to remove the battery and the
card from the camera.
• When the battery is left inserted in the
camera for a long time, discharge takes
place even if the camera is turned off. If
you leave the battery inserted for an
extended period of time, it will be
excessively discharged and it may
become unusable even after it is charged.
• To store the battery for a long period of
time, we recommend charging it once
every year and storing it again after you
completely use up the charged capacity.
• When you keep the camera in a closet or
a cabinet, we recommend storing it with
the desiccant (silica gel).
Extremely high precision technology is
employed to produce the LCD monitor
screen. The result is more than 99.99%
effective pixels with a mere 0.01% of the
pixels inactive or always lit. However,
this will not be recorded on the pictures
in the card.

Charging the Battery with the Charger
When the camera is shipped, the battery is
not charged. Charge the battery before
use.
1Attach the battery with attention
to the direction of the battery.

the AC input terminal. A gap will remain
as shown below.
• When the [CHARGE] indicator A lights
in green, charging starts.
• When the [CHARGE] indicator A turns
off (in about 120 minutes), charging is
completed.
3Detach the battery.
• After charging is completed, be sure to
disconnect the AC cable from the
electrical outlet.
• The battery becomes warm after use/

About the Battery
∫Battery indication
The remaining battery power appears on
the screen. [It does not appear when you
use the camera along with the AC adaptor
(DMW-CAC2; optional).]
>>>
The indication turns red and blinks:
Recharge or replace the battery.
When the LCD monitor is set to off by the
economy mode, the status indicator blinks.
∫The lifetime of the battery
The number of recordable pictures by
CIPA standards
• CIPA is an abbreviation of [Camera &
Imaging Products Association].
(Recording conditions by CIPA standards)
• Temperature: 23°C/Humidity: 50
% when
LCD monitor is on.
• Using SD Memory Card (supplied: 16MB).
• Using the supplied battery.
• Recording starts 30 seconds after the
camera is turned on.
• Record once every 30 seconds, with full
flash every other recording.
• Rotating the zoom lever towards Tele to
Wide and vice versa in every recording.
• Turn the camera off every 10 recordings.
• When the Power LCD function (P24) is
used, the number of recordable pictures
decreases.
Playback time
The number of recordable pictures and
playback time will vary depending on the
operating conditions and storing condition
of the battery.
∫Charging
Charging time and the number of
recordable pictures with the optional
battery pack (CGA-S004E) are the same
as the above.
• When charging starts, the [CHARGE]
indicator lights.
∫Charging error
• If the [CHARGE] indicator is changed
from lighting to blinking, this is a charging
error. In this case, disconnect the AC
cable from the electrical outlet, detach the
battery and then make sure if both room
and battery temperature are not too low or
high. If the temperature is between
10oC–35oC, recharge the battery. If the
[CHARGE] indicator does not turn off
properly and still starts blinking after you
completed recharging the battery, consult
the dealer.
• When the operating time of the camera
becomes extremely short even if the
battery is properly charged, the life of the
battery may have expired. Buy a new
battery.
∫Charging conditions
• Charge the battery under temperature of
10oC–35oC. (Battery temperature should
be the same also.)
• The performance of the battery may be
temporarily deteriorated and the operating
time may become shorter in low
temperature conditions (e.g. skiing/
snowboarding).

About the Card
∫Access to the card
While the card is being accessed
(Recognizing/Recording/Reading/
Deleting), the card access indication 1
lights.
When the card access indication 1lights,
do not:
• turn the camera off.
• remove the battery or the card.
• shake or impact the camera.
The card and the data may be damaged
and the camera may not operate normally.
∫About handling a card
Store precious data to your PC (P84). The
data on the card may be damaged or lost
due to electromagnetic wave, static
electricity, breakdown of this camera or a
defective card.
∫SD Memory Card (supplied) and
MultiMediaCard (optional)
The SD Memory Card and MultiMediaCard
are small, lightweight, removable external
memory cards. The reading/writing speed
of an SD Memory Card is fast. The SD
Memory Card is equipped with a
Write-Protect switch Athat can inhibit
writing and formatting a card. (When the
switch is slid to the [LOCK] side, it is not
possible to write or delete data on the card
and format it. When the switch is unlocked,
these functions become available.)
SD Memory Card
MultiMediaCard
• The reading/writing speed of a
MultiMediaCard is slower than an SD
Memory Card. When a MultiMediaCard is
used, the performance of certain features
may be slightly slower than advertised.
• After recording motion images using the
MultiMediaCard, the card access
indication may appear for a while, but this
is not a malfunction.
• Keep the Memory Card out of reach of
children to prevent swallowing.

Approximate number of recordable pictures and
the size
• If you select a larger picture size, you can print pictures clearly. When you select a
smaller picture size, you can store more pictures on a card though the picture quality is
deteriorated.
• The numbers are approximations. (If you mix Fine and Standard quality, the number of
recordable pictures changes.)
• The number of recordable pictures may vary depending on subjects.
• The remaining number of recordable pictures displayed on the screen is an
approximation.
