PRECAUTIONS

CAUTION

Caution concerning the flash

● Be careful when taking pictures at close range.

● Do not take pictures of people’s faces (babies in particular) at close range. If the flash goes off too close to

someone’s eyes it may cause a loss of vision. In particular, when taking pictures of babies, be sure that the

distance is at least 1 m.

Be careful when handling the unit

● Do not use in an unstable position. If you lose your balance, you might get hurt.

● Be careful that no foreign substance (dirt, rain, sand) can enter the unit, particularly when the battery cover

or lens barrier is open, as it may cause damage.

● To prevent damage, do not drop the camera or subject it to severe shock or vibration.

● This camera is not water-resistant. Do not put it in water, and be careful to protect it from rain, sea water,

etc.

● Do not use the camera outside during a storm or when there is lightning.

●

When replacing the batteries, make sure the power is OFF. If it is left ON, it may damage the internal circuits.

Storage environment

● To avoid damage or mis-operation of the camera, only store it where the temperature is –20 ~ 60°C and

the humidity 10 ~ 90%.

● Do not store in humid places, as condensation may form and cause damage.

● To prevent injuries or accidents, keep the camera out of the reach of children.

Usage environment

● Do not use where there may be a large concentration of flammable or explosive gases, as it may cause a

fire or explosion.

● To avoid damage or mis-operation of the camera, use it only if the temperature is 0 ~ 40°C and the humid-

ity 30 ~ 90%.

● Do not move the camera suddenly from a hot to cold place, or vice versa. It may cause the formation of

condensation inside the unit that may damage it. To prevent the formation of condensation, put the cam-

era in a plastic bag, etc. to protect it and wait until the camera has reached the ambient temperature before

taking it out.

● If used in low temperatures, the batteries will have a shorter life span than normal.

Precautions when handling the batteries

To prevent leakage, fire, or damage, please read the instructions carefully and observe the following points:

● Do not heat or throw the batteries into a fire.

● Do not disassemble, modify or solder.

● Do not install with inverted polarity (+, –).

● Do not let metal objects touch the contacts. Do not store or carry loosely with necklaces or hairpins.

●

Do not use old batteries together with new ones, and do not use different types of batteries at the same time.

● Do not store them in humid places as they may corrode.

● Do not use if something seems to be wrong.

● Do not use if there is leaking, swelling, a rise in temperature, or any other abnormal condition.

● When using them for the first time, if there are signs of corrosion or if they are warm, please take them

back to where they were bought.

● Never use any battery whose body is not fully covered by the insulating sheet or the sheet is torn as it may

cause leak, fire or injury. Some commercially available batteries are also partially covered, or not covered

at all by the insulating sheet. Never use these batteries.
