Handling the Camera WARNING • Do not use the camera near flammable or explosive gases. • Do not use the flash and LED on people (infants, small children, etc.) at close range. • You must be at least 1 m (3 ft.) away from the faces of your subjects. Firing the flash too close to the subject's eyes could cause a momentary loss of vision. • Keep young children and infants away from the camera. • Always use and store the camera out of the reach of young children and infants to prevent the following dangerous situations which could cause serious injury: • Becoming entangled in the camera strap, causing strangulation. • Accidentally swallowing the battery, cards or other small parts. • Accidentally firing the flash into their own eyes or those of another child. • Accidentally being injured by the moving parts of the camera. • Do not look at the sun or strong lights with the camera. • Do not use or store the camera in dusty or humid places. • Do not cover the flash with a hand while firing. • Do not insert anything into the microSD attachment other than the microSD card. Other types of cards cannot be inserted into microSD Attachment. • Do not insert anything other than an xD-Picture Card or the microSD Attachment into the camera. If you insert a card by mistake, such as a microSD card, do not use force. Contact authorized distributors/service centers. Damages such as scratches on the microSD Attachment or card could result in the camera overheating and/or malfunctioning. CAUTION • Stop using the camera immediately if you notice any unusual odors, noise, or smoke around it. • Never remove the batteries with bare hands, which may cause a fire or burn your hands. • Never hold or operate the camera with wet hands. • Do not leave the camera in places where it may be subject to extremely high temperatures. • Doing so may cause parts to deteriorate and, in some circumstances, cause the camera to catch fire. Do not use the charger if it is covered (such as a blanket). This could cause overheating, resulting in fire. • Handle the camera with care to avoid getting a low-temperature burn. • When the camera contains metal parts, overheating can result in a low-temperature burn. Pay attention to the following: • When used for a long period, the camera will get hot. If you hold on to the camera in this state, a low-temperature burn may be caused. • In places subject to extremely cold temperatures, the temperature of the camera's body may be lower than the environmental temperature. If possible, wear gloves when handling the camera in cold temperatures. • Be careful with the strap. • Be careful with the strap when you carry the camera. It could easily catch on stray objects and cause serious damage. EN 49
