CAUTION indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may
result in a minor or moderate injury.
Leaking, overheating, or burst battery could result in fire or injury.
Use battery with the correct specification for the camera.
Do not short circuit, heat or dispose of battery in a fire.
Do not insert the battery with the polarities reversed.
Remove the battery when not planning to use the camera for a long period of
time. Battery may leak corrosive electrolyte and permanently damage the
camera’s components.
Do not fire the flash while it is in contact with hands or objects. Do not touch the
flash after using it continuously. It may cause burns.
If you are using the AC Charger to drive the camera, do not move the camera
while it is switched on.
After use, always switch off the camera before unplugging the cable from the
wall socket. Then make sure that any connector cords or cables to other devices
are disconnected before moving the camera. Failure to do so may damage the
cords or cables and cause a fire or electric shock.
Take care not to touch the lens or the lens cover to avoid taking an unclear
image or causing a camera malfunction.
Avoid obstructing the lens or the flash when you capture an image.
Low temperatures can affect the performance of the LCD monitor and you may
experience the following problems. (These problems will usually disappear at
normal operating temperatures and are perfectly normal.)
- The time of power on can be delayed and the colour of LCD monitor can be
changed slightly.
- Fast movement, when pointing the camera at the subject, can make an after-
image appear on the LCD monitor.
Credit cards may be demagnetized if left near case. Avoid leaving magnetic strip
cards near the case.
