Cautions
zAvoid using, placing or storing the equipment in places
subject to strong sunlight or high temperatures, such as the
dashboard or trunk (boot) of a car. Exposure to intense sunlight
and heat may cause the batteries to leak, overheat or explode,
resulting in fire, burns or other injuries. High temperatures may
also cause deformation of the casing. Ensure that there is good
ventilation when using the compact power adapter to power the
camera.
zDo not store the equipment in humid or dusty areas. Storage
in such areas could lead to fire, electrical shock or other damage.
zBe careful not to bang the camera or subject it to strong
impacts or shocks that could lead to injury or damage the
equipment when wearing or holding it by the strap.
zBe careful not to cover the flash with your fingers or clothing
when shooting. The flash may be damaged and emit smoke or
noise. In addition, do not touch the surface of the flash after taking
several pictures in rapid succession. Either action could result in
burns.
zDo not operate the flash with dirt, dust or other items stuck to
its lens. The resulting heat build-up could damage the flash.
zEnsure that the battery charger or compact power adapter is
plugged into a power outlet of the specified rating, not over
the specified rating. The plug of the battery charger varies
according to region.
zDo not use the battery charger or compact power adapter if
the cable or plug is damaged, or if the plug is not fully
inserted into the power outlet.
zDo not allow metal objects (such as pins or keys) or dirt to
contact the charger terminals or plug.
zIf your camera is used for prolonged periods, the camera
body may become warm. Please take care when operating the
camera for an extended period as your hands may experience a
burning sensation.
