Caution

CAUTION indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in a minor or moderate injury.

Leaking, overheating, or damaged battery could result in ﬁre or injury.

-Only use battery with the correct speciﬁcations for the camera.

-Do not short circuit, heat or dispose of battery in ﬁre.

-Do not insert the battery with the polarities reversed.

Remove the battery when not planning to use the camera for a long period of time. Otherwise the battery may leak corrosive electrolyte and permanently damage the camera’s components. Do not ﬁre the ﬂash while it is in contact with hands or objects. Do not touch the ﬂash after using it continuously. It may cause burns. Do not move the camera while it is switched on, if you are using the AC adapter. After use, always switch off the camera before unplugging the cable from the wall socket. Then make sure that any connector cords or cables to other devices are disconnected before moving the camera. Failure to do so may damage the cords or cables and cause a ﬁre or electric shock.

Take care not to touch the lens to avoid taking an unclear image and possibly causing camera malfunction.

Avoid obstructing the lens or the ﬂash when you capture an image. When using this camera in low temperatures, you may experience the following. These are not camera malfunctions. The camera usually recovers at normal temperature.

-It takes longer to turn on the LCD screen and the color may differ from the subject.

-After changing to a different subject or scene, there may be an after image on the LCD screen.

Credit cards may be demagnetized if left near case. Avoid leaving magnetic strip cards near the case.

Never connect the 20 pin connector to the USB port of a PC. This carries a high risk of computer malfunction.

Do not open the battery cover or the USB cover in the sea, a lake or in similar underwater conditions. Do not open the battery cover or the USB cover with a wet hand either. It may cause electric shock or camera malfunction.
