Handling and Safety Precautions continued....6/7
•Do not trigger the flash in close proximity to human or animal eyes. Exposure to the intense light produced by the flash may injure eyesight. In particular, remain at least one meter (39 inches) away from infants when using the flash.
•Do not aim the camera directly into the sun or at other intense light sources that could injure your eyesight.
Caution
•Avoid using, placing or storing the equipment in places subject to strong sunlight or high temperatures, such as the dashboard or trunk (boot) of a car. Exposure to intense sunlight and heat may cause the batteries to leak, overheat or explode, resulting in fire, burns or other injuries. High temperatures may also cause deformation of the casing.
•Be sure to use the compact power adapter in a well ventilated area when recharging batteries or performing other recommended procedures.
•Do not store the equipment in humid or dusty areas. Storage in these areas could lead to fire, electrical shock or other damage.
•Be careful when wearing or holding the camera by the strap not to bang or subject it to strong impacts or shocks that could lead to injury or damage the equipment.
•Be careful not to cover the flash with your fingers when shooting. In addition, do not touch the surface of the flash after taking several pictures in rapid succession. Either action could result in burns.
