lDo not expose the camera to sand or dust.
ll
The PDR-3300 is particularly sensitive to sand and dust. If the camera comes into contact with sand or dust, not only will the camera become damaged, it will also no longer be repairable. Pay special attention when using the camera at the beach or where sand or dust is likely to be present.

l Notes On Condensation
ll
Due to a sudden change in temperature, such as when you move the camera from a cold location to a warm one, water droplets (condensation) may form on the inside of the camera or on the lens. When this occurs, switch the camera OFF, and wait an hour before using the camera. Condensation may also form on the SD Memory Card. If this happens, remove the SD Memory Card, wipe off any condensation and wait a short time before using it again.

Using the Power Outlet
If you use the AC adapter in a room with a power outlet, you can take photographs for an extended period of time. This also prevents failed photographs due to battery wear or failed transfer of data to a PC. For details on handling the AC adapter, be sure to read page 14.
- Before you connect or disconnect the AC adapter, be sure to turn the camera off. If the AC adapter is connected or disconnected with the power ON, the camera may malfunction or recorded data may be erased (destroyed) even if the batteries are loaded.
- The camera may not start normally if you load batteries not on the power off status. In this case, slide the Power knob to turn off the power, then turn on again.
Insert the AC adapter connector plug into the DC IN 5V terminal on the camera.
