INTRODUCTION
•Never fire the flash while it is too close to the subject’s eyes. Intense light from the flash can cause eye damage if it is fired too close to the eyes, especially with young chil- dren. When using the flash, the camera should be at least one meter from the eyes of the subject.
•Keep the camera away from water and other liquids, and never let it get wet. Moisture creates the danger of fire and electric shock. Never use the camera outdoors in the rain or snow, at the seashore or beach, in the bathroom, etc.
•Should foreign matter or water ever get into the camera, immediately turn power off, unplug the AC adaptor from the power outlet, and contact your dealer or nearest CASIO authorized service provider. Using the camera under these conditions creates the danger of fire and electric shock.
•Should you ever notice smoke or a strange odor coming out of the camera, immediately turn power off and unplug the AC adaptor from the power outlet. Using the camera under these conditions creates the danger of fire and elec- tric shock. After making sure there is no more smoke com- ing from the camera, take it to your nearest CASIO autho- rized service provider for repair. Never attempt your own maintenance.
•Never use the AC adaptor to power any other device be- sides this camera. Never use any other AC adaptor be- sides the one that comes with this camera.
•Never cover the AC adaptor with a quilt, blanket, or other cover while it is in use, and do not use it near a heater.
•At least once a year, unplug the AC adaptor from the power outlet and clean the area around the prongs of the plug. Dust build up around the prongs can create the danger of fire.
•If the camera’s case should ever become cracked due to dropping it or otherwise subjecting it to rough treatment, immediately turn power off, unplug the AC adaptor from the power outlet, and contact your nearest CASIO authorized service provider.
•Never use the camera inside of an aircraft or in any other areas where its use is prohibited. Doing so can result in an accident.
•Physical damage and malfunction of this camera can cause the data stored in its memory to be deleted. Be sure to always keep backup copies of data by transferring them to personal computer memory.
•Never open the battery cover, disconnect the AC adaptor from the camera or unplug it from the wall socket while re- cording images. Doing so will not only make storage of the current image impossible, it can also corrupt other image data already stored in camera memory.
