Important Safety Precautions
(Cont’d)
Caution
When taking a picture, wipe off the flash surface and be
careful not to cover the flash.
If the flash surface is dirty or you take a shot with the flash
covered, it is possible for the flash surface quality or color to
change, due to the high temperature of the flash.
Check that the polarity is correct when inserting batteries.
The battery may heat, damage or leak if the polarity is not
correct, possibly causing skin burns and/or personal injury
as a result.
Do not use batteries which have become soiled with oil or
sweat.
If soiled, wipe the contacts with a dry cloth before use.
When cleaning or carrying out non-photographic
operations on the camera, disconnect the AC adapter for
safety.
Do not leave the camera in locations such as:
• A location exposed to direct sunlight or inside a car, etc.
where the temperature may become extremely high.
Fire and/or damage to the unit may occur.
• Within the reach of children.
The strap may wrap around the neck causing strangulation,
or accessories such as batteries, Memory Card, etc. may
be swallowed.
• Unstable surfaces such as on an unstable table or an
angled surface.
Camera dropping on the head or other body parts may not
only cause personal injury but malfunction of the unit as
well.
• A location exposed to lampblack, steam, high humidity,
dust or vibration.
If dust or liquid enters the camera or if the internal parts
are damaged by strong vibration, overheating, fire or
electrical shock may occur as a result.
