such as in a sealed vehicle or in direct sunlight. Exposure to high
temperatures may adversely affect the camera case and internal
components and may cause a fire.
Do not cover or wrap the camera with a cloth or quilt. This may cause heat
to build up and distort the camera case and cause a fire. Always use the
camera and accessories in well-ventilated locations.
