1.  Before Use
Care of the camera
Do not subject to strong vibration, shock, or pressure.
•The lens, monitor, or external case may be damaged if used in t he following conditions.
It may also malfunction or image may not be recorded if you:
–Drop or hit the camera.–Press hard on the lens or the monitor.
∫ Splash Proof
Splash Proof is a term used to describe an extra level of prote ction this camera offers 
against exposure to a minimal amount of moisture, water or dust . Splash Proof does not 
guarantee that damage will not occur if this camera is subjected to direct contact with 
water.
In order to minimize the possibility of damage please be sure t he following precautions are 
taken: –
The Splash Proof feature works in conjunction with the lenses t hat were specifically designed 
to support this feature.
–Make sure the built-in flash is closed.–Make sure that all doors, socket caps and terminal covers are s ecurely closed.
–Make sure that you are in a dry and secure place when changing the battery, lens or memory 
card. After changing, make sure their protective doors are securely closed.
–If this camera is exposed to water, sand or any other foreign material clean it as soon as 
possible, taking the necessary precautions that the foreign sub stance does not get inside the 
camera.
–Under no circumstances should you touch or place any foreign ob jects within the camera or 
in close proximity of the camera’s image sensor.
If sand, dust, or liquids such as water droplets adhere to the  monitor, wipe them off with a 
dry soft cloth. –
Not doing so may cause the monitor to respond incorrectly to to uch operations.–If the monitor is closed when such liquids are present, malfunction may result.
∫About Condensation (When the lens, the viewfinder or monitor is fogged up)
•Condensation occurs when the ambient temperature or humidity ch anges. Be careful of 
condensation since it causes lens, viewfinder and monitor stain s, fungus and camera 
malfunction.
•If condensation occurs, turn the camera off and leave it for ab out 2 hours. The fog will 
disappear naturally when the temperature of the camera becomes  close to the ambient 
temperature.
If you shake the camera while it is turned off, its sensors may
 move or a rattling sound 
may be heard. The sound is caused by the In-Body Image Stabiliz er, and this is not a 
malfunction.
