Important notes

Extremes in temperature may cause problems.

-If the camera is transferred from a cold to a warm and humid environment, condensation can form on the delicate electronic circuitry. If this occurs, turn the camera off and wait for at least 1 hour until all moisture is dispersed. Moisture built up can also occur on the memory card. If this happens, turn off the camera and remove the memory card. Wait until the moisture has dispersed.

Caution on Using the Lens

-If the lens is subjected to direct sunlight, it could result in the discoloration and deterioration of the image sensor.

-Take care not to get fingerprints or foreign substances on the surface of the lens.

If the digital camera is not used for a long period, an electric discharge can occur. It is a good idea to remove the battery and the memory card if you do not intend using the camera for an extended period of time.

If the camera is exposed to an electronic interference, it will turn itself off to protect the memory card.

Camera Maintenance

-Use a soft brush (available from photo stores) to gently clean the lens and LCD assemblies. If this does not work, lens-cleaning paper with lens cleaning fluid can be used.

Clean the camera body with a soft cloth. Do not allow this camera to come into contact with solvent materials such as benzol, insecticide, thinners etc. This may damage the body shell of the camera and also affect its performance. Rough handling can damage the LCD monitor. Take care to avoid

damage and keep the camera in its protective carry case at all times when not in use.

Do not attempt to disassemble or modify the camera.

Under certain conditions, static electricity can cause the flash unit to fire. This is not harmful to the camera and is not a malfunction.

When images are uploaded or downloaded, the data transfer may be affected by static electricity. In this case, disconnect and re-connect the USB cable before trying the transfer again.

Before an important event or going on a trip, you should check the camera condition.

-Take a picture for testing the camera condition and prepare extra battery.

-Samsung cannot be held responsible for camera malfunctions.

If the digital camera is not used for a long period, the date and time may adopt the default settings by automatical battery discharged. In this case, reset the date and time correctly before the recording.
