 **Always wear the neck strap.
 **Don't expose the camera to dust, dirt, extreme heat/cold, or mechanical shocks.
 **Don' clean the lens with anything but lens tissue and a tiny amount of lens cleaner (or bring back to Media Loan for cleaning). Never touch or clean the reflex mirror inside the camera.
 **Keep the camera in its case and in a camera bag—especially around salt water (salt air mist will corrode the camera in a short period, resulting in expensive repair bills).

 ===Lens Information===
-The SMC Pentax-A Lens has an "A" setting located on the lens aperture ring next to "22" which does not function with the K1000 body.  If you accidentally get the ring locked in the "A" (auto) position, push the small black button next to the "A" and rotate the ring to the aperture scale.

 Media Loan has a few lenses available with the K mount: several 28mm (wide angle);  a couple of zoom lenses (28 - 105mm) and macro lenses.  If you wish to use other focal length lenses, you must use the K to S adapter (available separately) and you must use only S (screw) mount lenses.<br />
 '''WARNING!''': Installing and removing the adapter is tricky.  Have the procedure demonstrated for you when first using the adapter or follow the included instructions.  The adapter and the camera lens coupling mechanism are easily damaged.  Use care to avoid touching the mirror behind the lens. Permanent damage can result.  Please keep the adapter and instructions in the protective pouch when not in use!<br />
-Depth of field preview is not possible with the K1000 when equipped with the standard SMC Pentax-A K mount lens.  You will see depth-of-field focus when using accessory lenses in combination with the K to S adapter.  The adapter does not couple to the automatic diaphragm feature, therefore optional S Mount lenses read and operate in the manual stop-down mode.[[File:35mm-Lens-Change-Hand.jpg|alt=A Pentax K1000 with the lens being taken off.|thumb|Changing the Lens]]
