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, the pictures and/or sound on it 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 or disconnect the supplied charger/AC adapter. Then reinsert
the battery or reconnect the charger/AC adapter 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 extend the supplied cord or cable.
●
Do not allow the camera to come into contact with pesticides or volatile substances (they can cause
surface damage or coating to peel).
●
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.
●
Never leave the camera and the battery in a car or on a car hood in the summer.
It may cause leakage of the battery electrolyte, the development of heat, and may cause a fire and
the battery to explode due to the high temperature.
Caring for your camera
To clean your camera, remove the battery or disconnect the power plug from the outlet, and wipe with
a soft, dry cloth.
●
Use a damp cloth to remove stubborn stains, before wiping with a dry cloth.
