SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
12
• Accidentally firing the flash into their own
eyes or those of another child.
• Accidentally being injured by the moving
parts of the camera.
• Do not look at the sun or strong lights
with the camera.
• Do not use or store the camera in dusty or
humid places.
• Do not cover the flash with a hand while
firing.
CAUTION
• Stop using the camera immediately if
you notice any unusual odors, noise, or
smoke around it.
Never remove the batteries with bare
hands, which may cause a fire or burn your
hands.
• Never hold or operate the camera with
wet hands.
• Do not leave the camera in places where
it may be subject to extremely high
temperatures.
Doing so may cause parts to deteriorate
and, in some circumstances, cause the
camera to catch fire.
Do not use the charger if it is covered (such
as a blanket). This could cause overheating,
resulting in fire.
• Handle the camera with care to avoid
getting a low-temperature burn.
When the camera contains metal parts,
overheating can result in a low-temperature
burn. Pay attention to the following:
• When used for a long period, the camera
will get hot. If you hold on to the camera
in this state, a low temperature burn may
be caused.
• In places subject to extremely cold
temperatures, the temperature of the
camera's body may be lower than the
environmental temperature. If possible,
wear gloves when handling the camera in
cold temperatures.
• Be careful with the strap.
Be careful with the strap when you carry
the camera. It could easily catch on stray
objects - and cause serious damage.
Battery Handling Precautions
Follow these important guidelines to prevent
batteries from leaking, overheating, burning,
exploding, or causing electrical shocks or burns.
DANGER
• The camera uses a lithium ion battery
specified by Olympus. Charge the battery
with the specified charger. Do not use any
other chargers.
• Never heat or incinerate batteries.
• Take precautions when carrying or storing
batteries to prevent them from coming into
contact with any metal objects such as
jewelry, pins, fasteners, etc.
• Never store batteries where they will be
exposed to direct sunlight, or subjected to
high temperatures in a hot vehicle, near a
heat source, etc.
• To prevent causing battery leaks or damaging
their terminals, carefully follow all instructions
regarding the use of batteries. Never attempt
to disassemble a battery or modify it in any
way, by soldering, etc.
• If battery fluid gets into your eyes, flush
your eyes immediately with clear, cold
running water and seek medical attention
immediately.
• Always store batteries out of the reach of
small children. If a child accidentally swallows
a battery, seek medical attention immediately.
• Should you notice that the charger is emitting
smoke, heat, or an unusual noise or smell,
immediately cease use and unplug the
charger from the power outlet, and then
contact an authorized distributor or service
center.
