Thank you for purchasing this AgfaPhoto digital camera. Please read these operating 
instructions carefully in order to use the digital camera correctly. Keep the instructions in a 
safe place after reading so that you can refer to them later. 

Precautions

x

 

Do not point the camera directly into the sun or other intense light sources which could  
damage your eyesight. 

x

 

Do not try to open the casing of the camera or attempt to modify this camera in any way.  
High-voltage internal components create the risk of electric shock when exposed.  
Maintenance and repairs should be carried out only by authorized service providers. 

x

 

Do not fire the flash too close to the eyes of animals or young children. Eye damage  
may result. Please remain at least one meter away from infants when using the flash. 

x

 

Keep the camera away from water and other liquids. Do not use the camera with wet  
hands. Never use the camera in the rain or snow. Internal moisture is dangerous and 
may lead to electric shock. 

x

 

Keep the camera and its accessories out of the reach of children and animals to prevent 
accidents or damage to the camera. 

x

 

If you notice smoke or a strange odor coming from the camera, turn the power off  
immediately. Take the camera to the nearest authorized service center for repair. Never 
attempt to repair the camera yourself. 

x

 

Use only the recommended power accessories. Use of power sources not expressly  
recommended for this equipment may lead to overheating, distortion of the equipment, 
fire, electrical shock or other hazards. 

Disclaimer 

We assume no responsibility over and above the provisions of the Product Liability Law for 
damages suffered by the user or third parties as a result of the inappropriate handling of the 
product or its accessories, or by their operational failure and by their use. We reserve the 
right to make changes to this product and its accessories without prior notice. 

Warning! 

Never open the camera or remove any parts of it. This will void all warranty claims. 

Using your batteries 

For best performance and prolonged battery life, we recommend the use of rechargeable Ni-
MH batteries. 

Extending battery life 

Excessive use of the following functions use up a great deal of battery power and should 
therefore only be used occasionally: 

x

 

Flash 

x

 

Editing images on the camera display 

The battery life can be affected by soiling. Please clean the contacts with a clean, dry cloth 
before putting the batteries in the camera. Battery performance drops at temperatures below 
0° C. If you use the camera at low temperatures you should have replacement batteries to 
hand and ensure they do not get too cold. 
Please note: you should not dispose of cold and seemingly flat batteries because these 
batteries may work again at room temperature.
