General Precautions
Be sure to observe the following important precautions
whenever using the camera.
Never try to take pictures or use the built-in display while
operating a motor vehicle or while walking. Doing so cre-
ates the danger of serious accident.
Never try to open the case of the camera or attempt your
own repairs. High-voltage internal components create the
risk of electric shock when exposed. Always leave mainte-
nance and repair work up to authorized service providers.
Never fire the flash in the direction of a person operating a
motor vehicle. Doing so can interfere with the driverÕs vi-
sion and create the danger of accident.
Never fire the flash while it is too close to the subjectÕs
eyes. Intense light from the flash can cause eye damage if
it is fired too close to the eyes, especially with young
children. When using the flash, the camera should be at
least one meter from the eyes of the subject.
Keep the camera away from water and other liquids, and
never let it get wet. Moisture creates the danger of fire and
electric shock. Never use the camera outdoors in the rain
or snow, at the seashore or beach, in the bathroom, etc.
Should foreign matter or water ever get into the camera,
immediately turn power off, unplug the AC adaptor from
the power outlet, and contact your dealer or nearest ser-
vice provider. Using the camera under these conditions
creates the danger of fire and electric shock.
Should you ever notice smoke or a strange odor coming
out of the camera, immediately turn power off and unplug
the AC adaptor from the power outlet. Using the camera
under these conditions creates the danger of fire and elec-
tric shock. After making sure there is no more smoke com-
ing from the camera, take it to your nearest service pro-
vider for repair. Never attempt your own maintenance.
At least once a year, unplug the AC adaptor from the
power outlet and clean the area around the prongs of the
plug. Dust build up around the prongs can create the dan-
ger of fire.
If the camera’s case should ever become cracked due to
dropping it or otherwise subjecting it to rough treatment,
immediately turn power off, unplug the AC adaptor from the
power outlet, and contact your nearest service provider.
Never use the camera inside of an aircraft or in any other
areas where its use is prohibited. Doing so can result in an
accident.
Physical damage and malfunction of this camera can
cause the image data stored in its memory to be deleted.
Be sure to always keep backup copies of data by transfer-
ring them to personal computer memory.
