IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

Any problems that occur as a result of any of the following conditions will not be covered by our warranty.

￿Be careful that no water, dust or sand enters the camera/recorder.

￿When you are not using the camera/recorder, switch off the power and attach the lens cap.

￿When you shoot at a scene which contains an extremely bright object such as the sun or a light source, a bright vertical bar may appear in the picture. Your camera/recorder is functioning properly, but the solid-state pickup device (C.C.D.) usually causes this as an inherent characteristic. Try to avoid shooting an excessively bright object directly.

￿Be sure not to leave it in a place where the temperature exceeds 120ºF, or the pickup device may be damaged. Dangerous includes:

• Inside a car with the windows closed and in direct sunshine.

• Near heating appliances.

￿Do not leave the viewfinder lens facing sunlight for a prolonged period, or the phosphorescent surface of the cathode ray tube may be damaged.
