• 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 power
cord from the power outlet, and contact your dealer or
nearest CASIO authorized service center. Using the cam-
era 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 power cord from the power outlet. Using
the camera under these conditions creates the danger of
fire and electric shock. After making sure there is no more
smoke coming from the camera, take it to your nearest
CASIO authorized service center 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 power cord
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 power
cord from the power outlet, and contact your nearest
CASIO authorized service center.
• 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.
