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 downward. • 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 in places 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 the camera with great care. • Never use solvents such as paint thinner, alcohol or benzine to clean the camera. PRECAUTIONS FOR BATTERY • The misuse of batteries can cause hazards such as leakage, overheating, explosions, etc. Batteries should be inserted with the "+" and "-" sides facing correctly. • Do not mix battery brands, types or old batteries with new ones as it will result in overheating or fire. • Never try to disassemble, short or recharge the batteries. Also, do not dispose of the batteries in a fire, as they may explode. • Battery performance may be temporarily hindered in low temperatures, but will recover in normal temperatures. • Keep spare batteries on hand for replacement convenience when shooting outdoors or while traveling. • Keep the batteries out of the reach of children. • When the camera is in a bag, ensure the main switch is off: otherwise, battery power may be wasted if the shutter release button is accidentally pushed. 1
