To users of this camera
• There is a possibility that recorded data may be erased or that the camera
may not function correctly when used in surroundings such as installations
generating strong electromagnetic radiation or magnetic fields.
• The liquid crystal panel used in the LCD display is manufactured using
extremely high precision technology. Although the level of functioning pixels
is 99.99% or better, you should be aware that 0.01% or fewer of the pixels
may not illuminate or may illuminate when they should not. However, this
has no effect on the recorded image.
• There is a possibility that the illustrations and the display screen of the
LCD monitor in this manual are different form the actual product.

Care to be Taken During Handling
• Do not clean the product with organic solvents such as thinner or alcohol
benzene.
• Places of high temperature and humidity should be avoided. Particular
care should be taken regarding vehicles, which can become very hot
inside.
• Storing the camera where pesticides and chemicals are handled should
be avoided.
Remove from case and store in a well-ventilated place to prevent the
camera from becoming moldy during storage.
• Do not use the camera where it may come in contact with rain, water or
any other liquid, because the camera is not weather, water, or liquid
resistant. Should the camera get wet from rain, splashing water, or any
other liquid, wipe it off immediately with a dry soft cloth.
• Ensure that the camera is not subjected to substantial vibrations, shocks
or pressure.
Place the camera on a cushion for protection when the camera is sub-
jected to the vibrations of a motorbike, car, or ship, etc.
• The liquid crystal display will become black at temperatures of approxi-
mately 60°C (140°F) but will return to normal when normal temperatures
are returned to.
• The response speed of the liquid crystal display becomes slow at low
temperatures.
This is due to the properties of the liquid crystal and is not a fault.
• Remove dust from the lens and viewfinder using a blower or clean off
dust using a lens brush.
• Periodic checks are recommended every 1 to 2 years in order to maintain
high-performance.
• When the camera has not been used for a long time, confirm that it is still
working properly, particularly prior to taking important pictures (such as at
a wedding or during travelling). Pentax is not responsible for consequen-
tial damages (costs incurred as a result of taking pictures, loss of benefits
that were to be obtained through taking pictures) arising from failure of
this product.
• If the camera is subjected to rapid temperature changes, condensation
may form on the inside and outside of the camera. Therefore put the
camera in a bag or plastic bag, and take the camera out when the differ-
ence in temperature has subsided.
• The temperature range in which the camera can be used is 0°C to 40°C
(32°F to 104°F).
• Avoid contact with garbage, dirt, sand, dust, water, toxic gases, salt, etc.
as this may cause damage to the camera. If rain or drops of water get
onto the camera, please wipe dry.
• Refer to “Precautions When Using an SD Memory Card/MultiMediaCard”
(p.17) regarding the SD Memory Card/MultiMediaCard.
• Be sure to use the rechargeable lithium-ion battery D-LI8 provided for this
camera. If you use any other battery the camera may be damaged or mal-
function.
