USING YOUR DIGITAL DISK CAMERA SAFELY
AND CORRECTLY
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
The following safety precautions are to ensure the safe and correct use of your digital disk
camera and prevent injury to the user and others, and property damage. Be sure to read carefully
all the precautions listed here before using your digital disk camera.
LI-ION BATTERY PACK (UR-121)
DANGER
Your digital disk camera uses a Li-ion battery pack (part number UR-121).
■ If you notice leaking electrolyte, discoloration, deformation,
damaged portions, strange odors, or other abnormality,
immediately remove from the device, stop use, and move
away from any open flames
œ If you continue use under these conditions, it may cause a fire, rupturing of the battery pack,
eruption of electrolyte, or smoking.
œ If electrolyte is leaking and a flame or spark occurs nearby, the electrolyte in the battery pack
may ignite causing a fire, rupturing of the battery pack, eruption of electrolyte, or smoking.
■ Do not disassemble or modify
œ The battery pack is equipped with built-in safety mechanisms and protection
devices to prevent dangerous accidents. Disassembling, modifying, soldering,
or other similar operations on the battery pack may render these mechanisms or
devices dysfunctional and cause a fire, rupturing of the battery pack, or an eruption or leakage
of electrolyte.
■ Do not short the positive (+) and negative (–) poles with a
metal pin or other object and do not carry or store together
with a metal necklace or other object
œ If the poles are shorted, a large amount of current will flow, which may cause a fire, rupturing of
the battery pack, eruption or leakage of electrolyte, or overheating. Also, the metal object
shorting the poles together will become excessively hot. When carrying or storing the battery
pack, always place it in the supplied protective cover.
■ Do not place in a fire or expose to excessive heat
œ The insulation may melt or the gas venting valves and safety mechanisms may fail
allowing the electrolyte to ignite and cause a fire or rupturing of the battery pack.
■ Do not drop or subject to strong impacts
œ Strong impacts may damage the safety mechanisms and protective devices and
cause a chemical reaction within the battery pack that may cause a fire, rupturing
of the battery pack, eruption or leakage of electrolyte, or overheating.
■ Do not submerge in water or wet the terminals
œ This will cause corrosion and damage the safety mechanisms and protective
devices leading to a chemical reaction within the battery pack that may cause a
fire, rupturing of the battery pack, eruption or leakage of electrolyte, or overheating.
