Notes on handling the product ••The camera is neither dust-proof, nor splash-proof, nor water-proof. See "Precautions" in the Help Guide. ••If water, dust, or sand gets inside the open viewfinder unit or flash unit, it may cause a malfunction. ••Remove any dirt from the surface of the flash. Dirt on the surface of the flash may emit smoke or burn due to heat generated by the emission of light. If there is dirt/dust, clean it off with a soft cloth. ••Do not cover the flash with your fingers. ••Do not sit down in a chair or other place with the camera in the back pocket of your trousers or skirt, as this may cause a malfunction or damage the camera. ••When using the power zoom lens, be careful not to get your fingers or any other objects caught in the lens. ••Make sure that your finger is not in the way when you push down the viewfinder or flash. ••Do not carry the camera by the viewfinder unit, or use excessive strength on it. ••Do not leave the lens or the viewfinder exposed to a strong light source such as sunlight. Because of the lens's condensing function, doing so may cause smoke, fire, or a malfunction inside the camera body or the lens. ••When you shoot with backlighting, keep the sun sufficiently far away from the angle of view. Otherwise, the sunlight may focus inside the camera and cause smoke or fire. Even if the sun is slightly away from the angle of view, it may still cause smoke or fire. ••Do not directly expose the lens to beams such as laser beams. That may damage the image sensor and cause the camera to malfunction. ••Do not leave the camera, the supplied accessories, or memory cards within the reach of infants. They may be accidentally swallowed. If this occurs, consult a doctor immediately. Notes on the monitor and electronic viewfinder ••The monitor and electronic viewfinder are manufactured using extremely high-precision technology, and over 99.99% of the pixels are operational for effective use. However, there may be some small black dots and/or bright dots (white, red, blue or green in color) that constantly appear on the monitor and electronic viewfinder. These are imperfections due to the manufacturing process and do not affect the recorded images in GB any way. 3
