•Do not use the battery charger to charge batteries other than rechargeable lithium-ion battery D-LI50. This can cause explosion or a fire or breakdown of the battery charger.

•Do not disassemble or modify the product. This can cause a fire or electrical shock.

•If the generation of smoke or strange odor from the product or other abnormality occurs, immediately discontinue using and consult a PENTAX Service Center. Continued use could cause a fire or electric shock.

•If water should happen to get inside the product, consult a PENTAX Service Center. Continuing to use the product can cause a fire or electrical shock.

•If thunderstorm should be present during use of the battery charger, unplug the power cord and discontinue use. Continuing to use the product can cause damage to the equipment, fire or electrical shock.

•Wipe off the plug of the power cord if it should become covered with dust. This can cause a fire.

Care to be Taken During Handling

•When traveling, take the Worldwide Service Network that is included in the package. This will be useful if you experience problems abroad.

•When the camera has not been used for a long time, confirm that it is still working properly, particularly prior to taking important pictures (such as at a wedding or during traveling). Pictures cannot be guaranteed if recording, playback or transferring your data to a computer, etc. is not possible due to a malfunction of your camera or recording media (SD Memory Card), etc.
