Camera care
Exterior
Wipe gently with a soft cloth. If the camera is
•
very dirty, soak the cloth in mild soapy water
and wring well. Wipe the camera with the
damp cloth and then dry it with a dry cloth. If
you have used the camera at the beach, use a
cloth soaked in clean water and wrung well.
If any dirt, dust, sand, or other foreign material
•
adheres to the periphery of the lens cover
after use, or the lens cover does not move
smoothly, wash the camera using the method
described on P. 67.
Monitor
Wipe gently with a soft cloth.
•
Lens
Blow dust off the lens with a commercial
•
blower, then wipe gently with a lens cleaner.
Battery/Charger
Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth.
•
Do not use strong solvents such as benzene
or alcohol, or chemically treated cloth.
Mold may form on the lens surface if the
lens is left dirty.
Storage
When storing the camera for extended
•
periods, remove the battery, AC adapter and
card, and keep in a cool, dry place that is well
ventilated.
Periodically insert the battery and test the
•
camera functions.
Avoid leaving the camera in places where
chemical products are handled since this
may result in corrosion.
Battery and charger
•
This camera uses one Olympus lithium ion
battery (LI-42B/LI-40B). No other type of
batteries can be used.
•
Power consumption by the camera varies
depending on which functions are used.
•
During the conditions described below, power
is consumed continuously and the battery
becomes exhausted quickly.
The zoom is used repeatedly.
•
The shutter button is pressed halfway
•
repeatedly in shooting mode, activating the
auto focus.
A picture is displayed on the monitor for an
•
extended period of time.
The camera is connected to a computer or
•
printer.
Using an exhausted battery may cause the
•
camera to turn off without displaying the
battery level warning.
The rechargeable battery is not fully charged
•
at the time of purchase. Charge the battery
fully with the LI-40C charger before use.
The provided rechargeable battery usually
•
takes approximately 5 hours to charge (varies
on usage).
The supplied LI-40C battery charger is used
•
only for LI-42B/LI-40B battery. Do not charge
other type of battery with the supplied battery
charger. It might cause explosion, leaking,
overheating or fi re.

An AC adapter is useful for time-consuming
tasks such as image downloads to a computer
or when running a slideshow for a long period of
time. To use an AC adapter for this camera, the
multi-adapter (CB-MA1/accessory) is required.
Do not use any other AC adapter with this
camera.
Using your charger and AC
adapter abroad
The charger and AC adapter can be used in
•
most home electrical sources within the range
of 100 V to 240 V AC (50/60Hz) around the
world. However, depending on the country
or area you are in, the AC wall outlet may be
shaped differently and the charger and AC
adapter may require a plug adapter to match
the wall outlet. For details, ask at your local
electrical shop or travel agent.
Do not use travel voltage converters as they
•
could damage your charger and AC adapter.
Using an xD-Picture Card
A card (and internal memory) also corresponds
to the fi lm that records images in a fi lm camera.
Otherwise, the recorded images (data) can be
erased, and retouching is also available with
the use of a computer. Cards can be removed
from the camera and exchanged, but this is
not possible with the internal memory. Use of
larger capacity cards enables you to take more
pictures.
(Notes can be fi lled in

storing the camera for a long period.
Caution for Usage Environment
To protect the high-precision technology contained
•
in this product, never leave the camera in the
places listed below, no matter if in use or storage:
Places where temperatures and/or humidity
•
are high or go through extreme changes.
Direct sunlight, beaches, locked cars, or near
other heat sources (stove, radiator, etc.) or
humidifi ers.
In sandy or dusty environments.
•
Near fl ammable items or explosives.

Page 71
Battery Handling Precautions
This camera uses a lithium ion battery specifi ed by
•
Olympus. Do not use any other type of battery.
If the battery’s terminals get wet or greasy, camera
•
contact failure may result. Wipe the battery well
with a dry cloth before use.
Always charge a battery when using it for the fi rst
•
time, or if it has not been used for a long period.
When operating the camera with battery power
•
at low temperatures, try to keep the camera and
spare battery as warm as possible. A battery that
has run down at low temperatures may be restored
after it is warmed at room temperature.
The number of pictures you can take may vary
•
depending on the shooting conditions or battery.
Before going on a long trip, and especially before
•
traveling abroad, purchase extra batteries. A
recommended battery may be diffi cult to obtain
while traveling.
Please recycle batteries to help save our planet’s
•
resources. When you throw away dead batteries,
be sure to cover their terminals and always
observe local laws and regulations.
LCD Monitor
Do not push the monitor forcibly; otherwise the
•
image may become vague, resulting in a playback
mode failure or damage to the monitor.
A strip of light may appear on the top/bottom of the
•
monitor, but this is not a malfunction.
When a subject is viewed diagonally in the
•
camera, the edges may appear zigzagged on the
monitor. This is not a malfunction; it will be less
noticeable in playback mode.
•
In places subject to low temperatures, the LCD
monitor may take a long time to turn on or its
color may change temporarily. When using the
camera in extremely cold places, it is a good idea
to occasionally place it in a warm place. An LCD
monitor exhibiting poor performance due to low
temperatures will recover in normal temperatures.
•
The LCD used for the monitor is made with
high-precision technology. However, black spots
or bright spots of light may appear constantly on
the LCD monitor. Due to its characteristics or the
angle at which you are viewing the monitor, the
spot may not be uniform in color and brightness.
This is not a malfunction.
