SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Camera notes:

Do not store or use the camera in the following types of locations:
• In the rain, very humid and dusty places.
- In a place where the camera can be exposed directly to the sunlight or subject to high temperature, e.g. Inside a closed car in summer.
- In a place where the camera is subject to a high magnetic field, e.g. near motors, transformers or magnets.
! Do not place the camera on a wet surface or places where dripping water or sand may come in contact with the camera, which may cause irrepairable faults.
! If the camera will not be used for a long period of time, we suggest you remove the battery and the memory card from the camera and keep them in dry environment.
! If you carry the camera suddenly from a cold location to a warm place, moisture may condense inside the camera. We suggest you wait for a while before turing on the camera.
No compensation for loss of recordings. Loss of recordings cannot be compensated for if a malfunction of your camera or recording media, etc, makes the playback of recordings not possible.

Battery notes:

! Incorrect use of the batteries may cause them to leak, become hot, ignite or burst. Always observe the precautions given below.

• Do not expose the batteries to water, and take particular care to keep the terminals dry.
• Do not heat the batteries or throw them into a fire.
• Do not attempt to deform, disassemble or modify the batteries.

! Keep the batteries out of reach of babies and small children.

In cold locations, battery performance deteriorates and the time for which they can be used shortens markedly.

Memory card notes:

When using a new memory card, or a memory card has been initialized by a PC, be sure to format the card with your digital camera before using it.

To edit image data, copy the image data to the PC's hard disk first.

Do not change or delete the folder names or file names in the memory card from your PC, as this may make it impossible to recognize or misinterpret the original folder or file in your camera.

! The photos taken by this camera are stored in the auto-generated folder in SD card. Please do not store photos that are not taken by this model of camera, as this may make it impossible to recognize the picture when the camera is in playback mode. Please do not expose the camera to harsh environments such as moisture or extreme temperatures, which may shorten the life of your camera or damage the batteries.

If the LCD monitor is damaged, take particular care with the liquid crystal in the monitor. If any of the following situations arise, take the recommended immediate action indicated below: - If liquid crystal comes in contact with your skin, wipe the area with a cloth and then wash thoroughly with soap and running water. - If liquid crystal flows into the eyes inadvertently, please rinse with water immediately and seek medical assistance. - If liquid crystal is swallowed, flush your mouth thoroughly with water.
