Introduction
• Clean the camera body by wiping with soft cloth. Never use benzene, thinner, or other
volatile solvents or cleansers, since such substances will damage the body materials.
• Do not remove the SD memory card or Multi-Media Card (MMC) while the card access
LED is flashing.
• Interference may occur in recorded or played back images when the camera is used in
areas subject to strong electromagnetic interference (e.g., near a television set or stereo
speakers).
• Do not direct the camera lens directly toward the sun when shooting, since the CCD
element may be damaged.
• If the camera is dropped, it may be damaged internally or parts may have been dislodged
even when there is no visible external damage. The camera must be taken to a Kyocera/
Yashica Service Center for checking.
• Do not attempt to touch the insides of the memory card slot, since damage or malfunction
may result.

<Storing the Camera>
• Do not place the camera in places that may be exposed to high temperatures for extended
periods of time (the beach in summer, a closed car under bright sun, etc.). Such high
temperatures may cause adverse affects or damage to the camera, batteries, or memory cards.
• Remove the battery pack before storing the camera for extended periods of time, to prevent
battery leakage and resulting damage.
<LCD Monitor>
• Due to the innate characteristics of LCD panels, a few pixels may appear permanently lighted or
may not light at all. This is not a malfunction, and does not affect the recorded image in any way.
• The LCD monitor may appear difficult to see in some outdoor lighting situations.
This camera incorporates a safety circuit to protect its microcomputer against strong external static
electricity. Though rarely, it may fail to function because this safety circuit has come into action.
In this case, turn off the camera’s power, remove the batteries, reload them and use the camera
again.
For best performance, we recommend the use of genuine Kyocera accessories. Kyocera is not
responsible for any accidents or damage caused by the use of accessories made by other
manufacturers or fashioned by the user.
a
CAUTION
• Store the camera in a well-ventilated location, avoiding damp or dusty areas,
drawers or boxes containing mothballs, or in laboratories or other locations
where chemicals are handled. Exposure to such chemical fumes can result in
damage to the camera’s circuitry, resulting in short circuits and causing the
camera to emit smoke or catch fire.
a
CAUTION
• Rubbing or pressing strongly on the LCD monitor screen can result in
damage or malfunctions. If there is dust or dirt on the LCD monitor, blow it off
with a blower brush. Heavy soiling should be wiped off using soft cloth.
•
If the LCD monitor should become broken, take precautions to prevent personal
injury from glass fragments.
•
If the LCD monitor breaks and its liquid contacts your skin, quickly wipe away any
remaining liquid and wash the skin with soap and water. If the liquid should enter
the eyes, wash with clean running water for at least 15 minutes, then seek
medical attention immediately.
