Safety Precautions
11
Batteries
• Use only recommended batteries.
• Do not place batteries near or in direct flame.
• Do not let batteries come into contact with water (e.g. sea water) or other
liquids.
• Do not attempt to disassemble, alter or apply heat to batteries.
• Avoid dropping or subjecting batteries to severe impacts.
This may cause explosions or leaks, resulting in fire, injury and damage to the
surroundings. In the event that a battery leaks and the eyes, mouth, skin or clothing
contacts these substances, immediately flush with water and seek medical
assistance.
• Before you discard batteries, cover the terminals with tape or other insulators.
Contacting other metal materials in waste containers may lead to fire or explosions.
Cautions
• Do not aim the camera at bright light sources (the sun, etc.).
Doing so may cause malfunction or damage the image sensor (CCD).
• Be careful not to bang the camera or subject it to strong impacts or shocks
when hanging it by the strap.
• Be careful not to bump or push strongly on the lens.
This could lead to injury or damage the camera.
• When using the camera on a beach or at a windy location, be careful not to
allow dust or sand to enter the camera.
This may cause the camera to malfunction.
• Avoid using, placing or storing the camera in the following places.
- Places subject to strong sunlight.
- Places subject to temperatures above 40° C (104° F).
- Humid or dusty areas.
These could cause leakage, overheating or explosion, resulting in fire, burns or other
injuries. High temperatures may also cause deformation of the casing.
• Remove and store the batteries when you are not using the camera.
If the batteries are left inside the camera, damage caused by leakage may occur.
• Do not use the flash with dirt, dust or other items stuck to the surface, or when
covering the flash with your fingers or clothing.
This may cause the camera to malfunction.
