Study and familiarize yourself with the functions of your camera before using it. No compensation or guarantee is provided for unsatisfactory pictures or loss of profit, etc.

Carry spare batteries when you use the camera in a cold environment,

ENVIRONMENT

 Your camera is a precision instrument. Do not drop it or subject it to

physical shock.

 This camera benefits from a dust and splash proof construction. Although

this construction enables the lens to be used under light rain, it is not the same as being water proof. Please pay attention to prevent a large amount of water from splashing on the camera, especially when using it by a waterside. It is often impractical to repair the internal mechanism and electric components if damaged by water.

 Do not leave the camera in a dusty, hot, or highly humid environment for

a long period of time.

 If the camera is moved from a cold place to a warm room, water droplets

may appear on the camera. Please keep the camera in a bag until it is acclimatized to the ambient room temperature.

 The camera will work within a temperature range between 0˚C/32˚F and

+40˚C/104˚F and humidity less than 85% (no condensation). However, in cold temperatures below 0˚C, the power performance of the battery is

reduced. Please carry a spare battery in these circumstances, and keep the batteries warm.

 Static electricity or magnetic fields may affect the operation of the camera.

If such exposure occurs, please remove the battery from the camera and re-insert it, to reset the camera’s microprocessors.

DURING PROLONGED USE

 Although there are cases where the surface of camera gets hot, this is not

a malfunction.

 If you use the camera for an extended period of time, the camera may get

hot and the warning mark ( ) will be displayed. If the camera gets too heat, a warning message will be displayed and the camera will turn off automatically.

 If the camera turns off, please leave it switched off for more than ten

minutes to lower its temperature.

 Image quality may lower when the camera gets hot. If the warning mark

( ) is displayed, we recommend turning off the camera and wait until the temperature of the camera becomes lower.

SD MEMORY CARD

(sold separately)

The sd Quattro camera uses a SD memory card, SDHC memory card* and SDXC memory card*.

* UHS-1 standard memory card can also be used.

 In this instruction manual, SD memory card, SDHC memory card and

SDXC memory card are referred to as the ‘Card’.

 We recommend using the SDHC memory card or SDXC memory card to

store images.

 SD memory card, SDHC memory card or SDXC

memory card incorporate the write protection switch, which prevents writing or formatting the card accidentally. If the switch is placed in the ‘LOCK’ position, it is not possible to overwrite or erase your data accidentally.

 It is also possible to use an Eye-Fi card that has a Wi-Fi communication

function. (P.102)

 Do not leave the card in direct sunlight or near a heating device.

 Avoid storing cards in environments of high temperature and humidity or

where static electricity or electromagnetic fields may be generated.

 For proper usage of the card, please refer to their instruction manuals.

 The “Delete” feature of the Camera and PC may not delete the data in the

memory card completely. Some data might still remain. If you wish to remove all data from card securely, please use third party software.
