For Your Safety

For the safe and correct use of your camera, please read the following notes carefully. Our warranty may be void for damage caused by willful disregard of the instructions. The instruction alerts are to protect the user of the camera and people around him/her from possible damages and injuries. Caution and prohibition signs used in the booklet are shown on the right:

Never use a battery other than specified in the manual. Possible explosion and leakage could cause hazards and injuries.

When discarding a battery, insulate the poles with a piece of tape, etc. to prevent possible contact with metallic objects that could lead to ignition and/or explosion.

Insert battery correctly in the camera. Wrong polarity (+/-) could cause explosion and/or leakage of battery, possibly leading to hazards and injuries.

Keep removed battery out of children s reach. If swallowed, consult the doctor immediately as electrolyte within may seriously harm digestive organs.

Never throw in fire, short-circuit, break up or heat batteries, nor try to charge the ones not designed for recharge. This could lead to possible explosion and serious injuries.
