CAUTIONS • The electric circuitry inside the camera contains high voltage working parts. Never attempt to disassemble the camera. • Be careful not to drop or subject the camera to strong vibrations, shock or pressure. • Do not apply force to the zoom lens; do not place the camera with the lens facing down. • Never attempt to manually open the lens cover: it will automatically open and close as the main switch is turned on and off. • Make sure not to obstruct the autofocus window, lens, light sensor window, or the built-in flash with your fingers or hair. • Avoid leaving the camera for extended periods of time where temperature and humidity are high such as in a car. • Dirt, mud, sand, moisture, toxic gas, water, salt water, etc., penetrating the inside of the camera may cause damage or render it inoperable. Therefore, handle it with great care. • Never use solvents such as paint thinner, alcohol or benzine to clean the camera. PRECAUTIONS FOR BATTERY • The misuse of battery can cause hazards such as leakage, overheating, explosions, etc. Battery should be inserted with the "+" and "-" sides facing correctly. • Never try to disassemble, short or recharge the battery. Also, do not dispose of the battery in a fire, as the battery may explode. • Battery performance may be hindered temporarily in low temperatures, but it will recover in normal temperatures. • Keep a spare battery on hand for convenience when shooting outdoors or while traveling. • Keep the battery out of reach of children. • When the camera is in a bag, make sure the main switch is off: otherwise, battery power may be wasted if the shutter release button is pushed accidentally. 1

CAUTIONS
•
The
electric
circuitry
inside
the
camera
contains
high
voltage
working
parts.
Never
attempt
to
disassemble
the
camera.
•
Be
careful
not
to
drop
or
subject
the
cam-
era
to
strong
vibrations,
shock
or
pressure.
•
Do
not
apply
force
to
the
zoom
lens;
do
not
place
the
camera
with
the
lens
facing
down.
•
Never
attempt
to
manually
open
the
lens
cover:
it
will
automatically
open
and
close
as
the
main
switch
is
turned
on
and
off.
•
Make
sure
not
to
obstruct
the
autofocus
window,
lens,
light
sensor
window,
or
the
built-in
flash
with
your
fingers
or
hair.
•
Avoid
leaving
the
camera
for
extended
pe-
riods
of
time
where
temperature
and
hu-
midity
are
high
such
as
in
a
car.
•
Dirt,
mud,
sand,
moisture,
toxic
gas,
water,
salt
water,
etc.,
penetrating
the
inside
of
the
camera
may
cause
damage
or
render
it
inoperable.
Therefore,
handle
it
with
great
care.
•
Never
use
solvents
such
as
paint thinner,
alcohol
or
benzine
to
clean
the
camera.
PRECAUTIONS
FOR
BATTERY
•
The
misuse
of
battery
can
cause
hazards
such
as
leakage,
overheating,
explosions,
etc.
Battery
should
be
inserted
with
the
"+"
and
"—"
sides
facing
correctly.
•
Never
try
to
disassemble,
short
or
re-
charge
the
battery.
Also,
do
not
dispose
of
the
battery
in
a
fire,
as
the
battery
may
explode.
•
Battery
performance
may
be
hindered
temporarily
in
low
temperatures,
but
it
will
recover
in
normal
temperatures.
•
Keep
a
spare
battery
on
hand
for
conve-
nience
when
shooting
outdoors
or
while
traveling.
•
Keep
