When in use
●
The camera may become warm if used for long periods of time, but this is not a fault.
●
Keep the camera as far away as possible from electromagnetic equipment (such
as microwave ovens, TVs, video games etc.).
• If you use the camera on top of or near a TV, its pictures and/or sound may be
disrupted by electromagnetic fields.
• Do not use the camera near cell phones because doing so may result in noise
adversely affecting the pictures and/or the sound.
• Recorded data may be damaged, or pictures may be distorted, by strong magnetic
fields created by speakers or large motors.
• Electromagnetic fields generated by microprocessors may adversely affect the
camera, disturbing the pictures and/or the sound.
• If the camera is adversely affected by electromagnetic equipment and stops
functioning properly, turn it off and remove the battery. Then reinsert the battery and
turn the camera on.
Do not use the camera near radio transmitters or high-voltage lines.
• If you record near radio transmitters or high-voltage lines, the recorded pictures and/
or the sound may be adversely affected.
●
Do not keep objects that may be influenced magnetically close to the speaker.
• Magnetized objects such as bank cards, commuter passes, watches, may be
adversely affected by the magnetic influence of the speaker.
●
Do not extend the supplied cables.
●
Do not allow camera to come into contact with pesticides or volatile substances (this
can cause surface damage or the coating to peel).
●
Never leave the camera and the battery in a car or on a car hood in the summer.
Doing so may cause leakage of the battery electrolyte overheating, fire or a battery
explosion due to the high temperature.
Caring for your camera
To clean your camera, remove the battery, and wipe with a soft, dry cloth.
●
Use a damp cloth to remove stubborn stains, before wiping with a dry cloth.
●
Do not use benzine, thinners, alcohol, or kitchen detergent, as these may damage the
outer casing and finish of the camera.
