Notes on the battery pack

• Charge the battery pack (supplied) before using 

the camera for the first time.

• You can charge the battery pack even if it is not 

completely discharged. In addition, even if the 
battery pack is not fully charged, you can use 
the partially charged capacity of the battery pack 
as is.

• If you do not intend to use the battery pack for a 

long time, use up the existing charge and 
remove it from the camera, then store it in a 
cool, dry place. This is to maintain the battery 
pack functions.

For details on the usable battery pack, see 
page 103.

Notes on the LCD screen and lens

• The LCD screen is manufactured using 

extremely high-precision technology, so over 
99.99% of the pixels are operational for 
effective use. However, some tiny black and/or 
bright dots (white, red, blue or green) may 
appear on the LCD screen. These dots are a 
normal result of the manufacturing process, and 
do not affect the recording.

• Exposing the LCD screen or the lens to direct 

sunlight for long periods may cause 
malfunctions. Be careful when placing the 
camera near a window or outdoors.

• Do not press against the LCD screen. The screen 

may be discolored and that may cause a 
malfunction.

• Images may trail across on the LCD screen in a 

cold location. This is not a malfunction.

• This camera is equipped with a power zoom 

lens. Be careful not to bump the lens, and be 
careful not to apply force to it.
