Changing the lithium battery in the camera
When the lithium battery becomes weak or dead, the "I" indicator flashes on the LCD screen. In this case, replace the battery with a Sony CR2025 or Duracell DL-2025 lithium battery. Use of any other battery may present a risk of fire or explosion. When installing the lithium battery, keep the battery pack attached. Otherwise, you will need to reset the date and time retained by the lithium battery.
1 Slide the lid of the lithium
battery compartment down and open it.
2 Push the lithium battery once
and push it out from the holder.
3 Install the lithium battery with
the positive (+) side facing out.
4 Close the lid.
WARNING
The battery may explode if mistreated. Do not recharge, disassemble, or dispose of in fire.
CAUTION
Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the same type recommended by the manufacturer. Discard used batteries according to the manufacturer's instructions.
38-EN
Precautions
On cleaning
Cleaning the LCD screen
Wipe the screen surface with a LCD cleaning kit (not supplied) to remove fingerprints, dust, etc.
Cleaning the camera surface
Clean the camera surface with a soft cloth slightly moistened with water. Do not use any type of solvent such as alcohol or benzene as it may mar the finish of the casing.
Using the camera on a sandy beach or in a dusty place
Do not let sand get into the camera. Sand or dust may cause the unit to malfunction, and sometimes this malfunction cannot be repaired.
Concerning floppy disks
To protect data recorded on floppy disk, note the following: · Avoid storing floppy disks near magnets or magnetic fields such as those of speakers and televisions, permanent erasure of disk data may result. · Avoid storing floppy disks in areas subject to direct sunlight or sources of high temperature, such a heating device. Floppy disk warping or damage may result, rendering the disk useless. · Avoid contact with the disk's surface by opening the disk shutter plate. If the disk's surface becomes blemished, data may be rendered unreadable. · Avoid getting liquids on the floppy disk. · Be sure to use a floppy disk case to ensure protection of important data. · Use only a 2HD type disk head cleaner when cleaning the disk drive. · Even when you use a 3.5 inch 2HD floppy disk, image data may not be recorded and/or displayed depending on the using environment. In this case, use other brand disks.
39-EN
÷ Precautions
Operational temperature recommendations
This camera's operational temperature is between 32°F to +104°F (0°C to +40°C). Do not use this camera in extreme climates such as that of a hot beach or a skiing resort.
Moisture condensation
If the camera is brought directly from a cold to a warm location, or is placed in a very damp room, moisture may condense inside or outside the camera. Should this occur, the camera will not operate properly. In this case, remove the floppy disk, turn off the camera, and open the floppy disk cover and wait about an hour for the moisture to evaporate.
To prevent moisture condensation
When bringing the camera from a cold place to a warm place, put the camera in a plastic bag and allow it to adapt to room conditions over period of time. 1 Be sure to tightly seal the plastic bag containing the camera. 2 Remove the bag when the air temperature inside it has reached the temperature surrounding it (about 1 hour).
Notes on lithium battery
·Keep the lithium battery out of the reach of children. Should the battery be swallowed, immediately consult a doctor. ·Wipe the battery with a dry cloth to assure a good contact. ·Do not hold the battery with metallic tweezers, otherwise a shortcircuit may occur. ·Note that the lithium battery has a positive (+) and a negative () terminals. Be sure to install the lithium battery so that terminals on the battery match the terminals on the camera.
