About charging the battery
The time required for charging varies depending on conditions of battery usage. Charging takes
longer at high or low temperatures and when the battery has not been used in some time.
The battery will be warm during charging and for some time thereafter.
The battery will run out if not used for long periods of time, even after being charged.
Do not leave any metal items (such as clips) near the contact areas of the power plug.
Otherwise, a fire and/or electric shocks may be caused by short-circuiting or the resulting heat
generated.
Frequently charging up the battery is not recommended.
(Frequently charging the battery reduces the maximum usage time and can cause the battery to
expand.)
If the available battery power is significantly reduced, the battery is reaching end of its lifespan.
Please purchase a new battery.
When charging:
Wipe dirt from the battery terminals with a dry cloth.
Keep at least 1m (3′ 4″) away from an AM radio (this may cause radio interference).
Do not use a damaged or dented battery (especially terminals), e.g. by dropping (can cause faults).
Do not peel off or scratch the covering on the battery.
Using a battery with a part of or all of its covering removed or broken may cause malfunction.
About the supplied charger/AC adapter (→9)
Keep at least 1m (3′ 4″) away from an AM radio (this may cause radio interference).
The charger/AC adapter may generate whirring sounds when it is being used. This is not a
malfunction.
After use, be sure to disconnect the power supply device from the electrical outlet. (A very small
amount of current is consumed if it is left connected.)
Lens
Images may appear slightly white if the lens is dirty (fingerprints, etc.). Turn the camera on, hold the
extended lens barrel with your fingers, and gently wipe the lens surface with a soft, dry cloth.
Do not leave the lens exposed to direct sunlight.
Do not touch the lens cover, as this may damage the lens. Be careful when removing the camera
from a bag, etc.
When using a tripod or unipod
Do not apply excessive force or tighten damaged screws. (This may damage the camera, tripod
thread, or label.)
Ensure that the tripod is stable. (Refer to the tripod instructions.)
You may not be able to remove the card or the battery when using a tripod or unipod.
